Ohanzee "Hanzee" Dent is a fictional character in the FX television series Fargo, appearing in the second season, played by Zahn McClarnon.

[1] Initially a tracker and enforcer for the Gerhardt crime family, Hanzee serves as eldest son Dodd's right hand man for much of the season.

Similar to Coen (or Coen-esque) villains like Anton Chigurh and Lorne Malvo, he fits the "unstoppable killer" archetype, having been responsible for several deaths during the war against Kansas City and the search for the Blumquists.

However, despite seemingly being cold and remorseless, he is shown to be a complex person with a complicated, tragic backstory, suffering from the racism and ill-treatment of various countrymen.

Following this, Rye was hit by a car driven by Peggy Blumquist, who drove home with him in her windshield and where he was killed by her husband Ed in self-defense.

He and Dodd concoct a story—in which Ed is a hitman called "The Butcher" hired by Kansas City to kill Rye—in an attempt to rile Floyd into bloodshed.

Karl Weathers distracts Bear while Lou sneaks Ed out a rear window, narrowly avoiding Hanzee.

He finds Constance in her hotel room at the seminar and unsuccessfully forces her to lure Peggy to reveal her general whereabouts, strangling her afterward.

Lou and Hank burst through the rear door and exchange gunfire with Hanzee as Peggy stabs him in the back with the scissors.

Meanwhile, Lou stops at the gas station to call home, unaware his wife has collapsed, then discovers that Hanzee killed the attendant.

Hanzee stabs Floyd to death and, as he moves to kill the Blumquists, a UFO appears in the midst of the chaos, distracting him long enough for Peggy to throw hot water in his face, scalding him.

Ed eventually succumbs to blood loss, causing Peggy to have a mental breakdown and hallucinate that Hanzee has set the supermarket ablaze to smoke them out.

Most complaints stem from the fact that the two characters lack resemblance to each other, although it is implied in the last episode of season two that Hanzee had reconstructive facial surgery.
