The impression I have is that Prior senior was either demoted in favor of Danvers or was passed over for promotion to chief in favor of Danvers, and as a result has a problem cooperating with the new chief.

Yeah, that was the vibe I got from him. There's some kind of history between them that makes it so that he doesn't respect her and/or thinks he knows better. Like the thing with him letting the drunk lady out.

Pretty sure sometime after season 2 he admitted that he only did it because of HBO exec pressure for more True Detective. So while season 1 was made after years of effort season 2 just got kind of thrown together.

I'm assuming HBO wants to turn True Detective into like a creator forward crime anthology. This season just has to deal with the fallout of the transition.

Navarro's sister being found instantly is kind of bizarre.

It kind of feels like misery porn at this point with nothing good happening to any of the characters.

So that smiling sandwich tutorial guy who was so merry and carefree was an accessory to murder and all those boring-rear end dudes doing laundry etcetera were living out a vow of silence about killing someone with their bare hands?

Or are we to infer that only some of the scientists from that time are still there in episode one and there were a bunch of new people who didn’t know about the murder?

They mentioned in like episode 2 that nobody ever rotated out and all those guys have been there for years so yeah, they're all just ruthless who were totally okay with murdering a lady and never talking about it.
