Hi, first post here for me. I am starting to rewatch all episodes and is halfway through ep 2 right now. I noticed that the car that Richard is driving from the motel in Odessa is the same car(?) that Mr. C drives to meet Darya in the motell in ep 2. Or is it just the same type? I couldn't see any license plates.

Hi Robert.  Good observation.  Not sure what to make of it, any ideas?

I gather it might either be made to show some parallels between that world and this one or criss-crossing between them.

Maybe it's to suggest the darker side of Coop that seems more apparent in the alternate dimension.

I was hoping the diner would have been the same or had the same furniture, but the seats look different.  That would have been a nice parallel.

Here's a pic someone made of the cars from those scenes.

Interesting...

The one of episode 02  : licence plate South Dakota

The one of episode 18 in front of the motel : LP Texas but the front is a little damaged

Few minutes after in front of Carrie Page's house : NOT damaged

It's the same type but different cars I think.

The one of episode 18 is a little damaged. (Or does it means something ? ) 

 

Ooooh, perhaps the damage from when Mr. C. drove off the highway into the embankment.

There is something with this car damaged and not damaged (and dirty) few hours after.

It's not damage, it's a quirk of the light reflecting off the chrome plus you see thru the grill at that angle. As far as Mr. C's crash the car received a lot of damage. It flipped over.

This is also the same car they drive Cole, Albert and Tammy to the South Dakota prison in. I think it's just a stand in for generic government vehicle during the show and  then they used it for Mr. C scenes as it's at least 6 years old and not worth a lot.

Yes you're right.

Just watched this part again and it's the angle of the car.

It looks like the tyre has been taken from a formel-1 car, maybe for use in fast timetravel.

Yeah, I watched ep 4 again now and it seems to be the same type of car used by Albert, Cole and Tammy. Red herring.
