Trivia

Raylan (Timothy Olyphant) says the photo of 19th-century marshals behind his desk makes him wonder if he should grow a mustache. Olyphant famously sported a mustache while playing Seth Bullock, a U.S. marshal and sheriff, in Deadwood (2004) and Deadwood: The Movie (2019).

User Reviews

From out of the ruins . . .

When I praise "Justified" for its dialogue (and I do it a lot), this is what I mean - when Raylen puts his argument with Winona on hold to address the car that's been following them:

"Hey, fellas. Uh, forgive me, I can't tell if you guys are following me or not, and I'm just a little out of sorts, to be honest with you. I shot and killed a guy just three days ago. So at this intersection here, I'm gonna go right. I want you two to go left.

. . . I go right, you go left.

If you go right then . . . I'm gonna want some answers."

Anyhoo, 'Debts and Accounts' has the Bennett family in pieces while Boyd (a man reborn, now more than ever)sets to re-establishing Crowder control over Harlan. Storywise, this moves from mournful to downright sad (Lorett's lonely existence) to renewed hope. And even throws in a tense shootout for good measure.

Yeah, I'd say the show has found its groove.
