I just love Mags so much. She's like the world's most awesome villain. She's completely evil and conniving, and you totally understand why. That's part of why this bit was so wrenching, because she's just pulled off this major coup, she's provided for her family and town in a massive way, shown up the city lady, set up new agreements with people like Boyd, and there's Raylan again, changing the shape of things.

Book: He could hurry... a little.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Coover's "You looked like you just saw a ghost" looked just so natural and surprised that I don't think initially it was meant as a provocation. Then he realized he had something, but didn't realize what the full implications of that meant.
The scene where he put it on, which was emphasized, made it look like he didn't give more than a second's thought other than I need to look nice for momma's party.

Justified S1 isn't available for free somewhere on the web -- legally, I mean?

Alas, no -- if they had S1, I can't find it there now. Just the last S2 episodes.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I finally got a chance to watch the lst Justified, and I definitely think Coover wore the watch and manipulated things so Loretta would see it.
Isn't the crooked sheriff (Doyle?) Mags' son too? I thought he would be the heir to her throne.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I think Coover knew full well what he was doing too. In his head, it went "She sees the watch, she figures out her father is dead, she leaves, and Mama loves me again."

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yes, this, exactly.
Was Doyle the guitar playing one? The one who shot people because of Coover and Dickie`s fuckup? Then, yes, it does seem like he would be capable ebough to inherit. So maybe Mags apparent affection for Loretta really was just the "if I had a daughter" stuff.
But imagine growing up being Mags` daughter! And furthermore, imagine how it would have affected the boys. Her hold on them is so based in fear, so physical in its abuse, I can only picture how it would have been for them as kids. And if that were cast against a daughter she treated any differently, and whoo.
Did I mention how I love Mags? Wouldn`t want to get within miles of her myself, but as a character? Pure genius.
