Summary
'What would the former Archduke Gortash be doing planting duskwood saplings in a public park?,' the former Archduke Gortash said instead. He had, in fact, just spent the past four hours planting duskwood saplings in a public park. 'Don't be ridiculous. It is merely a passing resemblance, and one I am not too fond of, given the circumstances.'
'Huh,' the man said. 'I suppose that does make sense: you poor fucker! Besides, they wouldn't let a dangerous madman like that back on the streets.'
'Yes, you would think so, wouldn't you,' Gortash said, mostly to himself.

Summary
Marty’s in that gulf now. The hallway that chasms down the house, littered with glass and smashed picture frames. Green tendrils crunch under his boots, grey dust and plaster coating his sweat-damp skin. He doesn't belong here, alongside the poison-bright blooms of Rust's knowledge, Rust’s regrets. It's too much for him. He's going to get fucking eaten.
But maybe he wants that. Maybe he wants teeth and blood and something vicious. Maybe this haze of guilt and power is the most alive he’s ever been. Maybe it's allowed him to see. “And that's where you and I... get it wrong. That's the gulf between us... what I expect and what you mean. That what you're getting at?”
“Marty, I think we're in real danger of understanding each other,” Rust drawls, and drops the tickling touch of the plant, resting a palm on Marty’s hammering chest.

Audrey’s still not entirely sure which she prefers: her mother’s soulless, cookie-cutter McMansion or her father’s piece-of-shit shack.
The screen door swings open, clanging against the side of the house and Rust Cohle, of all people, steps out onto the porch.

Summary
Maggie coughs up something that sounds suspiciously akin to a laugh and Rust’s gaze swerves to find her lightly tracing her temple with a thumbnail, mouth screwed up into a sheepish smile that looks like kids, you know?
He doesn’t.
