I kinda feel like Will, and even Kalinda, are  screwed either way as far as Alicia is concerned. I agree with Will's assertion that making the tape public would hurt her. Of course it would. On the other hand though, it doesn't feel out of the realm of possibility to me that Alicia would be livid if she finds out…

Exactly! And this is the one thing that's always bugged me about his relationship with Alicia. She knows this is who he is, and from what I can tell, always has been. So why is she hanging around? I just don't understand what she ever saw in him in the first place, other than Chris Noth is a good-looking guy. That…

I think that's it exactly, olive. Although I don't think she has the foggiest idea who she's just put herself up against. Then again, this show has given us formidable women before and maybe we're seeing the beginning of another one. While I'm sure having her standing off to the side while Boyd was getting arrested…

I was leaning toward Vasquez from the beginning (which is a bummer because I like him too) and last night's episode made that suspicion even stronger. Why, exactly, was he outside Winona's sister's house with Art? He didn't even seem to buy his bullshit excuse about crossing Ts and Raylan was too fired up to do…

I need to rewatch to be sure, but I don't think I saw Helen's headstone. Wasn't she buried on the property too?

Third! Not to get all mushy about it, but I look forward to these comments every Tuesday almost as much as I look forward to the show itself. January is a looonnnggg way off.

I say save that for the series finale.

Agreed, and while I can't remember what he said to Raylan closely enough to paraphrase it, I think he essentially made your point. I don't think he's under any illusions that his legions of thugs feel any real respect or loyalty to him. Rather, they're just falling in line because they're already in this deep and they…

Nobody in the business does smug mother fucker better than Jere Burns.

I appreciated Raylan keeping the plan under his hat (pun kinda intended, sorry) all the more in light of the Bond villain-level plan the Governor had to kill Andrea on The Walking Dead.

Thanks mello. I try.

Agreed. As good as the bad guys are on this show, I really don't think anyone is ever gonna be able to top Margot Martindale in my book.

There's got to be a musical with clogging in it, right?

No. His pants were just a little more snug than usual.

Yep. That works!

Yeah. It's where Arlo was living after Helen kicked him out. He couldn't leave the property because of his tracking anklet.

For a minute there, I actually thought Boyd was going to talk Raylan out of going after Nicky.

In a suit that's about two sizes too big. That little detail was one of my favorite parts of the episode. It's like the wardrobe department is letting everybody know that he literally can't fill his father's shoes. Great touch!

As someone else said last week or the week before, I wouldn't be surprised to find out that Quarles is the one who's behind all that property being bought up in Noble's Holler.

As an enthusiastic Winona basher, I have to admit that she redeemed herself tonight by finally making the smart decision. I'm not gonna start a fan club or anything, but she's got a clean slate with me now… at least for the time being.
