The Billboards: A Recap
For those of you who've been living under a rock (or just haven't started the series yet, no judgment here), let's quickly recap the billboard situation. In the first episode of Mare of Easttown, we're introduced to the chilling sight of a billboard with the words "Who spit first?" spray-painted on it. This billboard becomes a recurring motif throughout the series, hinting at a deeper mystery that's yet to be unraveled.
The Evidence
Now, let's talk evidence. We've got to be detectives here, folks, so let's put on our thinking caps and analyze what we've got.
The Spelling
First things first, the spelling of "spit" on the billboard is unusual. It's spelled with a "t" at the end, which is typically not the case in American English. This could be a clue that the person who wrote it isn't a native English speaker, or it could just be a mistake. Either way, it's something to keep in mind.
The Location
The billboard is located near the Easttown border, which could suggest that the person responsible isn't a local. Or, it could mean that they wanted to keep their message out of Easttown itself, for whatever reason.
The Timing
The billboard appears right around the time that the body of Erin McMenamin is found. Coincidence? We think not. This timing could suggest that the billboard is related to Erin's murder, or it could be a red herring meant to throw us off the scent.
The Suspects
Alright, let's talk suspects. Who could have spat first, and why?
Dylan Hinchey
Dylan, the troubled teen with a history of drug use and a connection to Erin, is an obvious suspect. He's got a motive, he's got the opportunity, and he's got the rebellious streak that might lead him to spray-paint a billboard. But did he spit first? That's the million-dollar question.
Deacon Mark Burton
Father Mark, the local priest with a secret, is another suspect. He's got a connection to both Erin and Mare, and he's got a secret that he's desperate to keep hidden. Could he have spat first in a fit of anger or desperation? It's possible, but it's also possible that he's just a red herring.
Mare Sheehan
Yes, you heard it right. Our protagonist, Mare herself, is a suspect. She's got a history with Erin, she's got a secret of her own, and she's got a temper that could lead her to do something impulsive like spray-paint a billboard. But did she spit first? That's the question that's keeping us up at night.
The Theories
Now, let's talk theories. These are just our best guesses, so don't quote us on any of this. But here are a few ideas that we've been kicking around.
The Cover-Up Theory
Maybe the person who spat first was trying to cover up something. Maybe they saw something they shouldn't have, or maybe they did something they shouldn't have. Either way, they're trying to throw us off the scent with this billboard.
The Blame Game Theory
Maybe the person who spat first is trying to shift the blame onto someone else. Maybe they're trying to make it look like someone else did it, or maybe they're just trying to sow confusion and chaos.
The Cry for Help Theory
Maybe the person who spat first is crying out for help. Maybe they're trying to get someone's attention, or maybe they're trying to send a message to someone specific. This one's a bit of a long shot, but stranger things have happened.
The Twist
And then, of course, there's the possibility that the billboard is a twist. Maybe it's a red herring, or maybe it's a clue that we're not supposed to figure out until the very end. Maybe it's a misdirect, or maybe it's a test. We just don't know, and that's what makes Mare of Easttown so darn compelling.
