Agreed. What's weird though is that he doesn't look even slightly injured in either of the in-costume pics.

Perhaps a staging with the recorder/camera from the other room

---

Oooh, I like that theory.

Great point as well.

So...

- Was the first shot legit, and the second one a blank?

- Or is Ferrell in on the ruse?

If Ferrell is in on it then that would imply that he knows who killed Caspere right?

Yeah, which doesn't make much sense.

I'm not saying it's not a stage job (I kind of like that theory), but I don't think Ferrell character is in on it.

I'm with the group that doesn't think he's dead. If they wanted to finish him off shoot him in the head. Next episode will be interesting.

He's not dead.

Those came from the first post so they aren't spoilers.

Didn't caspere have a traumatic non fatal pelvic wound also? Since it seems to be the same guy they killed caspere that shoots Ray, I'm guessing he is using some kind of non lethal beanbag/etc and knows how to inflict non lethal pain.

Also there was a 3rd mention of that dumb digital recorder that Ray got for his son.

Any chance they fast forward in time like s1 did?

I'm guessing the investigation stalls out and we flash ahead several months or years to when CF has recovered from the shooting.

As I was saying...

It is going to be interesting to see how he survives that.

Also, as to VV's monologue. My ears perked up when he first mentioned paper mache. I can't find it through Google, but I remember reading a philosophical essay about the world being made of paper mache by an omnipotent being and how that would affect you of you were the only thing not paper mache but you couldn't tell everything else was. I think ultimately, it concluded "cognito ergo sum." I wish I could find it so I could compare it to future philosophical moments in the show.

Only problem with a flash forward is Vince Vaughn is gonna be pretty ****ed if they don't find out who killed Caspere pretty damn quick. Maybe that's the whole paper mache deal, it's all about to come crashing down.

The more I think about Caspere's killer and that Cadillac, the fishier the killing gets. And the more it makes me think that the killer is not a professional. As such, I am doubting that the killing is related to the land deal.


A mint-condition, maroon, vintage, 30-year-old Cadillac Brougham with the D'Elegance package and whitewall tires would be one of the more distinct vehicles in Southern California. No professional would stakeout Caspere' Hollywood pad in something so memorable.


Further, he loaded Caspere's body in the daylight. When we did not know the location (episode one), this did not seem so odd. After seeing the neighborhood in episode two, loading during daylight seems reckless as Hell.


It struck me as odd during episode one that Caspere's body remained upright so well during the grand tour of Southern California. At the end of the episode, it seemed that Caspere's knees did not bend when the body was removed feom the car at the rest stop. I thought at the time that the killer must have propped the body in a sitting position until it rigor mortis set is, specifically so it could sit in the car and at the rest stop. This was confirmed in the autopsy discussion during episode two. But the atopsy also showed time of death "between 400am and 900am on the morning of the 26th." Rigor mortis sets in (at the latest) in six or seven hours, so the killer wasn't waiting for rigor mortis when he loaded the body fully 24 hous later.


Lastly (for now), taking Caspere the Corpse on a grand tour of Southern California was not remotely professional. Roll one stop sign or be unaware of one burned-out taillight, and you are busted while chauffering a dead body. Stupid and sloppy.

After the season is over, can someone edit/compile scenes of all highway shots in this show? The folks in charge love showing highways. Season 1 showed lots of road too.

Schmendeler, you can't expect to come across references to GoT once the shows are in the wild, so quick, go watch them all to get caught up.

I thought this was a much stronger episode than episode one, too.

Comment has been deleted. You should do likewise.

well i'm done with this thread. thanks for ruining GoT for this season.

DOUBLE DOWN

I'm honestly surprised that you were able to stay in the dark as to what happened in a huge season finale, of one of the most watched shows, for two weeks.

It hardly seems to be everyone else's responsibility to avoid discussing a past event, just because you haven't yet watched your DVR.

It hardly seems difficult to not mention it in a thread on a completely different show without taking 2 seconds to mention a spoiler. good to know that two weeks from publication date is the limit to when posting spoilers without warning is acceptable.

so, it's fine to go onto threads for shows that are based on books and share spoilers on those shows? after all, we're talking years of time that has transpired in most cases. or maybe there is an element of thought that should go into sharing things that others might not yet have seen. notice that other people starred my post, so i'm not the only one that was disappointed to read that spoiler.

maybe, just take a minute to be considerate? naw, that's too difficult. after all, we're on the internet, and dick mode is the default.

thanks. good thoughts.

Is his name "Caspere" or Casper? Because if its Casper, for some reason seeing that extra 'e' is extremely bothering me.

His picture on the wall at City Hall had a placard spell "Caspere." Check s2.e1.
