True Detective

Series Premiere. 2012. Two former Louisiana State CID partners, Martin Hart and Rustin Cohle, give separate statements to a pair of investigators about the murder of a prostitute, Dora Lange, 17 years earlier. As they look back, details of the crime, replete with occult overtones, are accompanied by insights into the detective's volatile partnership and personal lives.

[HBO] HD. 'Seeing Things.' (Season One) Under pressure to land a suspect, Cohle and Hart follow a lead to a cathouse and an incinerated church.

A hidden image at the burned-out church leads Cohle and Hart to Joel Theriot, a tent-revival minister whose parishioners finger a scarred 'tall man' seen with Dora Lange. Hart gets sidetracked after Maggie sets Cohle up with a friend at a C&W bar.

Hart and Cohle hunt for their newly identified suspect, Reggie Ledoux. As Hart's personal life collapses around him, Cohle immerses himself in an old criminal identity from his narco days, contacting a biker gang known to deal with their suspect.

Hart and Cohle share the spoils of a solved case. Papania and Gilbough confront the detectives with troubling new intelligence.

Maggie sheds light on Cohle's activities in 2002, when his relationship with Hart fractured and Cohle quit the force.

Hart and Cohle forge a truce to probe a murky string of disappearances that tie to the symbology of the Dora Lange murder and the Tuttle family.
