We’re doing a deep dive into episode five, “A Dog with Two Tails.”Please note that this article might have minor spoilers, so read with caution! Still need to see the new episode? Head on over to Hulu to watch it now!<h2>Easter eggs from “A Dog with Two Tails”</h2>• As Lee sleeps in the jail cell, “We Belong Together” by Ritchie Valens plays. Valens was a rock and roll pioneer who died in a tragic plane crash on Feb. 3, 1959, a date which has since become known as “The Day the Music Died.” The plane was also carrying Buddy Holly, J.P. “The Big Bopper” Richardson and Roger Peterson. Owasso’s Tommy Allsup was also supposed to be on that flight, but he lost a coin toss to Valens for a seat. Allsup credited losing that toss with saving his life.• Donald Washberg (Kyle MacLachlan) returns, and now acting as Oklahoma’s governor. MacLachlan recently released his memoir “Fictional Selves,” and it’s been charting Oklahoma’s Bestsellers list.• “Tulsa Straight Ahead” by Asleep at the Wheel plays as Lee and Donald get out of the SUV. The western swing group recently performed at the historic Cain’s Ballroom back in August.• Inside the café, Lee drinks from a Route 66 mug. On Nov. 11, the Mother Road will celebrate its centennial birthday. We recently published a story about some of the events taking place on that day, including the Tulsa Veteran’s Day Parade, a street party, multiple concerts and more. You can read that story here:• At Judge Jed Sallsman’s house, there’s a movie poster for “Dances with Wolves” hanging on the wall. The film features the late Graham Greene, who played Arthur in season 1. Wes Studi is also in “Dances with Wolves.” The Oklahoman attended Tulsa Community College and returned to his alma mater last year for a special event where he was honored by TCC. You can see a gallery from that occasion below:• Lee and Sallsman also talk about “Tombstone,” which features Rex Linn, an actor originally from OKC, and Michael Rooker, who studied at the University of Oklahoma.• Sallsman shows Lee and Donald a gavel that belonged to Isaac C. Parker, “The Hanging Judge.” Parker presided over the U.S. District Court for eleven Arkansas counties, as well as Indian Territory (present-day Oklahoma). The judge was known for his harsh application of capital punishment.• In the background of that same scene, you can see a chest that reads “Buffalo Bill’s Wild West,” an outdoor traveling show that traveled the U.S. Created by William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody, the show featured sharpshooter Annie Oakley.• “Saddle Tramp” by Marty Robbins plays at the trio rides horses on the ranch. In 1979, Robbins received the Golden Trustee Award from the National Cowboy &amp; Western Heritage Museum in OKC for his contributions to preserving the music of the American West.<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=2763QD_1GneGUGl00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=2763QD_1GneGUGl00" width="1763" height="1176" ><figcaption>Ethan Hawke as Lee, John Hawkes as Judge Sallsman and Kyle MacLachlan as Donald.&nbsp; Shane Brown/FX</figcaption></figure>• Lee touches on the fact that Woody Guthrie’s music is often misconstrued, using "This Land Is Your Land” as an example. The song, often treated as a patriotic ditty, is actually an anti-capitalist protest song that Guthrie wrote as a reaction to “God Bless America.”• Once the trio make it the stable, a horse handler takes the horses back to their stalls. This character is played by Krista Perry, who moved to Tulsa in 2012. Perry is a stunt coordinator and performer who has worked on productions like “Killers of the Flower Moon,” “Reservation Dogs,” “Dark Winds” and more.• Daveed Diggs is the narrator for the documentary that Sallsman shows Lee and Donald about the diversion program, Fresh Start. You might recognize Diggs’ voice from his role as Thomas Jefferson and Marquis de Lafayette in “Hamilton.” Diggs also starred in “Snowpiercer.” See more information about him at the end of the article!• Darla, the public defender that Ginger shares her office with, has an Oklahoma State University lanyard hanging from the lamp on her desk.• As Lee is dropped off by Donald at his van, Samantha Crain’s “Belly” begins to play. Coming up on Nov. 7, the Tulsa-based artist will be playing Horton Record’s Rock n' Folk n' Chili Cookoff at Cain’s Ballroom.

Their team’s name is “The Pony Boys,” a reference to S.E. Hinton’s “The Outsiders.” On Nov. 7 Will Rogers High School will be hosting a special screening of the film, as well as tour of the school. Read all about it here: • As everyone bowls, “Surefire” by Tulsa’s own Wilderado plays. Wilderado, along with Ken Pomeroy, will be playing a sold-out show at Cain’s Ballroom on Nov. 11 in celebration of Route 66’s centennial.• During the same scene, Pomeroy’s song “Pareidolia” plays. It’s fitting that her music is used in this episode as she played Pearl Washberg (Donald’s daughter) in season 1, performing at Mercury Lounge towards the end of the season.<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=3crj3b_1GneGUGl00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=3crj3b_1GneGUGl00" width="1763" height="1176" ><figcaption>Ken Pomeroy as Pearl in season 1 Shane Brown/FX</figcaption></figure>• During the same scene, Joleen Brown’s “Familiar Sound” plays.
