Disclaimer: This post may contain spoilers for the upcoming Fargo episode. Noah Hawley explains about the hotel massacre and that close encounter moment. 

Showrunner Noah Hawley has always been such a tease when it comes to the 1979 lore, "Massacre at Sioux Falls."

Now, on its second season, the Emmy award winning show has been dropping bits and pieces of vague references about the alien kind.

In a talk with Hawley, the writer and producer of the show, spills about the motel massacre scene that involved a lot of the cast in one sitting. Plus, he talks about the big elephant in the room. Or, in this case, the alien.

Hawley starts off with his first tease about the Massacre in Sioux Falls back in season one. Everyone knew it was going to happen. The only question is, when will this bloody fateful event occur in season two. 

"We could have started the season with that, it could have been in the middle, or the end", says Hawley. However, he wanted to do it in a seamless and natural way that all characters can converge into one setting. 

And what about the close encounter with the extra terrestrial being? When Hawley set the stage for everyone to arrive, he was much more attracted to the idea of the unknown and unpredictability. And when the massive flying UFO tease came into the picture, all Hawley could say was:

"I haven't prepared anything. There are going to be people who will smack the TV and go, 'Come on!' and that's a great reaction. Everybody is entitled to their reaction. I like to say that everything in there is because it actually happened in the world of our 'true story' and in this case there was a UFO. I haven't seen or heard any of the responses yet, so I'd be responding to phantoms".

And yet another tease! However, Fargo was based on a true story so what inspired Hawley to add a UFO to the mix? He felt right about adding it. There was a Minnesota UFO encounter back in 1979 and he felt like it worked for the time period. "And I thought it was funny" he adds, as told in an interview.

As for the ending of this season, Hawley claims that he sees Fargo as a tragedy with a happy ending.
