Episode 4 moves quickly but is still running in circles. However, there are certain breadcrumbs it's leaving behind and if you look closely, it may lead us to Julie and Will's abductor.  

*This article contains spoilers for Season 3 episode 4*

We are four episodes into this season of 'True Detective' and the latest one is probably pivotal for the rest of the story. I say probably because everytime you think you know something and are sure that you have it figured out, the show laughs in your face. It's almost as though the below average second season never happened and we are all thankful for it. The fourth episode of 'True Detective' sets the pace for the season. It's moving quickly and it's surrounding the town but is still running in circles. However, there are certain breadcrumbs it's leaving behind and if you look closely, it may lead us to Julie and Will's abductor.
