Taking place mainly between late 2010 and early 2011, season three finds financially strapped Minnesota parole officer Ray Stussy (Ewan McGregor) and girlfriend Nikki Swango (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) plotting to rob Ray's brother, Emmit (also played by McGregor). The plan sets in motion a chain of events involving mistaken identity, a few homicides, a dangerous British businessman (David Thewlis), and a small-town cop (Carrie Coon) investigating her stepfather's murder. Goran Bogdan co-stars.
