Just as the stakes are at an all-season high, so is the body count 'Outlaw' moves the plot at a fast clip while piling on one fantastic scene after another. Raylan has a bitter heart-to-heart with his father (this after Arlo goes Rambo on a prison guard) which speaks to Olyphant's talents, almost spitting out the words in acrimony. But this is Walton Goggins' show as Boyd plays Wynn Duffy, turns the tables on the condescending pricks from Clover Hill *and* maneuvers himself as an asset to Theo Tonin. Shave his head, he'd be Lex Luthor.
Funny thing about Drew Thompson is that this episode all but tells you with a neon sign who he really is. I guess I hadn't been paying much attention the first time I watched this because it seems really obvious now just in the dialogue. The disappointment here isn't in how they handled it, but that the impending reveal means the departure of one of my favorite guest stars.
9/10
