Episode 5-09
"Wrong Roads"
Written by Dave Andron, of many episodes, and Leonard Chang, of some episodes
Directed by Michael Dinner, also of many episodes. Notably, he was also an executive producer on the Elmore Leonard inspired Karen Sisco who also popped up in the Justifed world.
You have to appreciate the United Nations of Assholes meeting at Audrey's. Like the gorillas who freeze death after eating the snakes who ate the lizards who ate the pigeons, Daryl wants a meeting with Boyd, crashed by HR's guys, crashed by Raylan and Miller.
All resulting in the some quotes from King Lear, and the line of the night, possibly the season: "Raylan, can I be excused from the table?
Ava has her one thing per episode happen but it is a doozy. Dr. Rowena wants her to kill the prison den mother.
Poor Dewey. He would just be the idiot wherever he happens to be. Here is happens to be rural racist Kentucky being a pawn with Boyd or Daryl or whoever happens to need him. Plus he gets picked on by everyone and it sucks to be forced to be around people who simultaneously don't want to be around you, but make you stick around.
Delayed post due to the DVR cutting off the last 20 minutes of this episode.
The Justified-esque elements
- Using the pencil as a weapon
- The hard drinking, seemingly corrupt, DEA agent
- Paying off the 21 foot rule with a nightime showdown on the highway
