Dickie seems more sly, though. Doyle's not quite as Blunt Instrument as Coover, but I think without Mags keeping him in check, he wouldn't be where he is now. The impression I got was that Dickie would have been the alpha Bennett (the male alpha, anyway) if he hadn't been injured.

That's interesting...could very well be that the injury is what's keeping him from being the Alpha son...and with Mags talking to him like that, I wouldn't be surprised to see him pulling a Prince Jon/Iago/insert sly villain of your choice here...and maybe these moves that look like greedy dumbassery (especially with Coover there to make him look dumber) are actually testing the boundaries or making preliminary moves to set up something bigger down the road apiece...Veeery Interesting.

Re: Tonight's Justified -- Ooooh, I'm betting Raylan's going to get to shoot at least one bad guy by the end of the episode. (And he's been trying so hard to restrain himself!)

You know, everyone that Raylan is related to by blood or marriage seems to do nothing but get him into trouble.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
The slow chase was so sad it was funny -- which was the idea, I suppose.

The slow chase was hilarious. I also loved the Harlan County bit.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Have to share the behind-the-scenes-of-Leverage photo Tim Hutton just tweeted. Period dress? WTF? Can't wait to see this one!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Eliot with a gun? Huh indeed.
