Justified: the only thing we're on the same side of is, like, this car

-This episode definitely felt like it was setting the stage for the next episode and I'm okay with that. The Whoop-de-doo is looming and that made every other action feel smaller.

-Whenever Arlo shows up I know things will get interesting. Raylan taking the money with just a light 'I lied' was hilarious.

-Do not mess with Ava.

-Whoever cut the preview for this week's episode did a great job presenting the idea that Mags was going to brutishly disrupt the townhall meeting; when she seized control in a much more subtle manner, one that showed how she's been able to control this region for so long.

-The fireworks going off were opportune for both sides.

-Carol (the red head coal woman) is arrestingly attractive. Like, damn, I know Raylan and her hooking up is a very bad idea but then again, I won't lie and say I wouldn't mind seeing it on screen.

-This point is solely for Timothy Olyphant's measured hotness.

-Raylan was hung over and took a beating. I don't feel like looking up last season to get the episode names, but I remember Raylan taking a beating just before administering a healthy measure of ass kicking last season. So, this proof of his fallibility keeps him in mortal realm just before he does something ridiculous. Much pleasure from getting some backstory on Raylan and the Bennets.

-Boyd and Raylan banter appreciation for life.

-Art knowing doesn't surprise me; and the tension of him knowing but not saying because once he says it, well things might have to change is nice to watch. Raylan leaving is not an actual threat, but that's proof how much this show thrills me that the tension of Raylan thinking about leaving is still something I enjoy seeing.
