She looked right into the camera, like a sex worker, and told the viewer what she wanted, as she looked into a mirror so her gaze at herself became your gaze at her.
Maybe the story that's right under our noses is the mystery that we don't take anyone at their word when the story is considered a mystery. Even before the story starts, because we know we're viewing a show that includes a hunt for a serial killer, we hunt for the clues to that killer. What if Cohle really is the killer, but we don't suspect him because characters in the show do.
