Review of Who Goes There

Season 1, Episode 4
Edgy episode!
15 February 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Edgy episode! Two stories collide into the True Detective's main plot. Martin reaps the crop which was planted. Cohle said it right when you go after crazy!?! The writers know real life. The girlfriend did not like being treated like a whore, and was jealous of Martin's wife. The girlfriend never wanted to be number 2. Martin thought it would be easy to just walk away from an attached girlfriend. The retaliation was realistic. Cohle has no sympathy and tells Martin this is not work related,and sticks to the case. An emotionally unbalanced Martin agrees to Cohle's crazy plan of stealing coke from the evidence room and meeting up with a biker from Cohle's undercover days in order to find the suspect. Regrettably, the biker wants to take down a score with Cohle and a mess ensues. A major plot twist which drives the series sideways. The logical but crazy creates a well written episode. Well directed and acted. Who Goes There has a great pace and tone which intrigues the viewer. Harrelson and McConaughey performances are the best of both careers. No more eye candy roles for Matt for now. I give who goes there a 10 out of 10. a must see episode.
