This episode, though, offers plenty of examples of Raylan being more Frances-like. When he stops off at Wynn Duffy’s RV, for example, and Wynn offers his sincere condolences for Arlo’s death but insists he had nothing to do with it, Raylan pats Wynn on the leg (out of frame, but audibly), and says, “Thank you, Wynn. Whatever your other failings, I believe that’s true.” It’s a sweet moment, and typical of the way that Justified’s enemies have a “Sam and Ralph”-like ability to “clock out” when the situation isn’t requiring them to draw on each other. Similarly, when Raylan comes upon Constable Bob exchanging fire with Clover Hill assholes Paxton and Johns, he strides into the crossfire and gets everyone to lower their weapons. Then, when the Clover Hillers try to defend their treatment of Constable Bob, Raylan does what he always does, which is to ignore any crime that might be happening at the moment (“Save it. Don’t give a shit.”) so that he can get straight to what he actually wants.
