So like this morning right I popped on the internets while getting ready for work (lol addiction) and there was a post at
capslock-tinman (long may it reign) with a comment declaring that it would be awesome if there was a spin-off in which Cain was a detective. My brain imploded randomly and spat this out (uncapslocked for your pleasure):
Det. Wyatt Cain, Topeka PD. His arch nemesis is Everett "Zero" Zevon, Kansas gangland crime boss (and cattle rustler). His informant is Antoine DeMilo, small-time pimp and Zero's flunkie.
Cain is a man on a mission to avenge his wife's death while also trying to raise and set a good example for his son, Jeb. His boss, Lt. Lionel Rawlins, is forever trying to gently reign him in. Cute, young assistant DA Dorothy Gailman seems set to be the one to mend Cain's heart, but observant fans know he's bound to end up with eccentric, brilliant forensics expert Ambrose "Glitch" LeFevre. Fangirls implode when it's revealed in the third season finale that Cain and Glitch have been carrying out a secret affair for two years.
There shall be proper opening credits, ending with a power walk through a cornfield. Also murders-of-the-week, endless meth lab busts, guest apperances by Dorothy's troubled older sister Delia, Glitch flirting with everything that moves, and somehow the whole crew accidently goes for "Wizard of Oz" costumes for the Halloween party. It'll be awesome.
THIS ONE'S MINE, Y'ALL. NO TOUCHIES. Even if it may only ever exist in macro form.
ETA: Holy shit I just GIS'd Topeka for inspiring aerial shots.
Look at this. Count the number of vehicles you see on the road. I mean... my GOD.
