In March 1979, the Gerhardt family is the most powerful crime syndicate in Fargo, North Dakota. Their power is threatened by two near-simultaneous incidents. A debilitating stroke leaves patriarch Otto incapacitated, potentially jeopardizing the dynasty's leadership. Two of his sons, Dodd and Bear, begin competing for control. At a Waffle Hut near Luverne, an attempt by the third Gerhardt son Rye to extort Judge Mundt into unfreezing his business partner Skip Sprang's assets turns deadly. Rye kills Mundt and two Waffle Hut employees. Wounded, he sees what appears to be a UFO and stumbles into the road, where he is struck by a passing car.
