It took them until Justified: City Primeval Season 1 Episode 4, but we finally got what is -- in my estimation -- a classic Elmore Leonard-esque criminal philosophy expounded with conviction and eloquence.
Toma Costia, Mags Bennett says howdy-doo, and please give Raylan a run for his guns.
With the Albanian mob making things complicated, does anyone else feel like Raylan's just about done being all calm and collected and by the book?
To be fair, he still hasn't shot anyone. And that's really the best measure of how far he's come since his stint in Harlan County.
When Agron takes off on Bryl -- more thoughts on our dear Norbert later -- Raylan's restraint when Besnik's instincts are to back up his buddy is laudable. Pre-parenthood, Raylan would've at least shot him in the leg to make sure he stayed put.
Taking a moment to admire Yuna's spunk.

[Editor’s Note: The following review contains spoilers for “Justified: City Primeval” Episode 4, “Kokomo.”]
A common occurrence in “Justified” sees Raylan (Timothy Olyphant) sit down with someone most people would consider scary, but rather than beg off, back down, or express much emotion (beyond his trademark frustration mixed with mild curiosity), the U.S. Marshall is forced to reflect on the nature of his duties. Past bosses like Mags Bennett (Margo Martindale) and Ellstin Limehouse (Mykelti Williamson) are perhaps the best examples, given the credible moral dilemmas each local leader elicits from Raylan, but challenges of principle can come from just about anyone. Like, say, Toma (Terry Kinney), the Albanian mob boss who invites Raylan for a chat after the “accident” suffered by his nephew, Skender (Alexander Pobutsky).
With a pushy Norbert (Norbert Leo Butz) in tow, Raylan arrives at the meeting planning to convince Toma to let Skender tell the truth: that he didn’t fall down the...
