Summary: Raylan finds himself once again on a collision course with the Bennett
clan as he hunts for a killer and looks to find McCready, since someone
is cashing in his checks. Meanwhile Boyd plots to heist the mine with
treacherous new partners.
Dewey Crowe is being ripped from
his cell and dragged into the prison infirmary
where Givens waits. Apparently,
Dewey requested to speak to the marshal,
claiming that he had valuable information

in information instead, asking about check forging in Harlan. Arlo pleads ignorance, but Ellen
gives a name: Bowman Crowder, Boyd’s dead brother.
Boyd, meanwhile, sits quietly at his kitchen table while Kyle explains the details of a planned
robbery. Boyd is surprised to learn that it involves killing the foreman who works at the mine
– and then framing him for the robbery. ”You’ve killed men for far less,” Kyle says. ”Let’s keep
our eyes on the prize.” Suddenly, the phone rings. Boyd walks to the kitchen and answers it,
pretending to speak to Ava. The truth is that Boyd has called himself from his cell phone, which
