Interview with Mark Sheppard which discusses why Sterling would go to Interpol.

I realise that I don't know squat about what the plot of Justified is, but Timothy Olyphant has a gun and wears that hat real well. I'll tune in and see.

I like Mark Sheppard's take on the character. Nate used to be the team's Sterling, and Sterling (the actual "good guy") is becoming the Nate who used to chase these guys everywhere. Although I think both Sterling and Nate make the mistake of equating "law-abiding" with "good guy" and "law-breaking" with "bad guy".

My feelings about Justified are the same as your's, ita. Will tune in to see Timothy Olyphant and his cowboy hat.

Although I think both Sterling and Nate make the mistake of equating "law-abiding" with "good guy" and "law-breaking" with "bad guy".

I think that's the reason Nate is such a mess right now, apart from Sophie not being around. He's convinced he's one of the bad guys now, and he doesn't like it, no matter how many good deeds he does.

Finale tonight! Sad now.

John promises no cliffhangers, because he hates them, but he still left us in an emotional state the end of season 1. So I doubt he'll be nice.

Angry Parker, worried Hardison, troublesome Sterling, losing-it Nate.

Okay, glad for no cliffhangers though.

Frankenbuddha - I like your analysis. Makes sense to me.

I'm fascinated by Nate's repeated insistence that he is not a thief. So, felonies are okay, fraud, kidnapping, assault and battery, conspiracy, but as long as you don't steal anything with your own hot little fingers, you're still a good guy? Nate, Nate, Nate. Your identity crisis is epic. I'm hoping you resolve at least some of your shit this evening, sir. Preferably without going to jail.

I'm hoping that Sterling is in town about Blackthorne's character, and not our guys. That's the scenario I can see easiest keeps them out of jail, although they'll certainly be in jeopardy.

I think Nate uses "thief" to mean "bad guy." He may do bad things, but he's not a bad guy. And thieves are bad guys, right? Or maybe he'd say he does dodgy things.

Honestly, though, if I were a professional thief and my "boss" kept saying he wasn't a thief in the same tone he might use to say I'm not a puppy-fucker, I'd probably either quit or dangle him off a building until he apologized and admitted to being a douchebag.

I love Nate. But he is kind of a douche.

(I swear I never called anyone a douche-anything until I moved to New Jersey.)

Yes, but did you ever dangle someone from a building is what I want to know.
