There is some sort of anti-karma idea represented in the movie in a lot of cases. (1) Mildred (Frances McDormand) uses the billboards to blame Willoughby (Woody Harrelson) for not finding the killer of her daughter. He in return, pays an extra month rent to keep those billboards. (2) Dixon (Sam Rockwell) throws Welby (Caleb Landry Jones) out of second-floor window; but, when he meets Welby in the hospital and apologizes for the damage done, Welby is mad at him, but eventually leaves him a glass of juice. (3) Mildred set the police station on fire while Dixon was inside. Dixon decides to save Mildred's daughter's case file from the fire before leaving, and eventually gets burned by the fire set by Mildred, later is told by Mildred that she was the one who caused the fire, to which he responds by joking about it. (4) We learn along the way that Charlie (John Hawkes), Mildred's ex-husband, was actually the one who set the billboards on fire when drunk. Later, the scene when her date is ruined, she takes their leftover bottle of wine, goes to Charlie's table, tells him to take care of his new girlfriend, and just leaves the wine bottle on his table and leaves.
