3. What Happened To Stavros Milos?
FXThe last we saw of uber religious grocery store chain owner Stavros Milos was in "Buridan's Ass." Lorne Malvo had succeeded in freaking him out with his own recreations of Biblical plagues, which included a shower of blood and a swarm of crickets in his grocery store, Phoenix Farms. This was all done as a blackmail attempt to get a million dollars from him, but at the last minute Stavros decided
not to deliver the money to Lorne, and instead re-bury the briefcase full of money that he found years ago in the snow, which he believed to be the cause of his fall from God's graces. After burying the cash, Stavros' son Dmitri is caught in a literal rain of fish, which causes his car to veer off the side of the road, killing both Dmitri and his father's bodyguard. Stavros comes across the car wreck, and falls to his knees in anguish. We never see or hear from Stavros again, which makes us wonder what happened to him. Was Lorne ever upset that he never showed up to deliver the million dollars? Or was he too caught up in the events of the shootout in Duluth that it slipped his mind? The death of Dmitri likely solidified Stavros' fears in God's wrath, so how did that change him? Unlike the other questions on this list, this one
kind of has an answer. Series writer, creator, and showrunner Noah Hawley opened up about Stavros in an interview, and said that they shot a scene of him that took place before the one-year time jump, but was cut due to time constraints. Colin Hanks' character Gus Grimly visits Phoenix Farms one last time to ask Stavros about the rented car driven by Lorne Malvo, and witnesses Stavros tossing all of his autobiographies into a fireplace. Sure, it's not much, but that's at least
something, and will likely show up on the home video release.
