Morton's Fork is the Season 1 finale of Fargo , as well as the tenth episode overall. The episode premiered on June 17, Molly takes the lead, while Gus pursues a hunch.

Just as Lester realizes he left the plane tickets in his jacket pocket and gave the jacket to Linda, the police arrive at the agency. Molly Solverson is called to the scene and instantly deduces Linda was not the target, based on her being covered up by Lester's coat. Lester arrives on the scene and feigns an emotional reaction.

No, creative success is never obvious or popular, not in Take Town. This is especially true if it ends up being the final season, as recent comments from FX execs seem to suggest.
