Justified - Raylan vs Wynn Duffy

Raylan Givens

[@philliplewis1586]

The shock and terror Duffy displays when Raylan pulls the trigger is sone of the finest acting I've seen. Then the panic and frustration trying to think of what he knows that will appease Raylan. Top tier.

[@Taco4You2]

''That's right, they're outside'' so subtly cold blooded.

[@spatadia]

my god I love Wynn Duffy in this series. His first appearance in the show and he is the MOST unhinged person ever. Then by the end of the show we are rooting for him. He should have had a spinoff titled "All I do is Wynn"

[@SneakyCheeseThief]

He was a survivor too. I haven’t gone back to the show for a while, but I think really he’s the only bad guy that doesn’t end up in the dirt.

[@jparker19822009]

He has the stupidest looking. Mustache on god green earth

[@brianfergus839]

For some reason he reminds me of Conan O’Brien 😂

[@walkertongdee]

Plastic surgery fresk

[@KGBBooks]

Duffy mellowed out after he got shot in his first appearance on the show lol

[@glitter116]

jere burns has the best way of screaming "JESUS CHRIST" on televsision

[@jamesrawlins735]

What's so funny is I didn't think so much of Jere Burns when I first saw him years ago in Dear John as Kirk (kind of a one-note sleazy sex addict). He has proven me wrong so many times since them (Justified, Burn Notice and the group leader on Breaking Bad are three of my favorite performances.)

[@rickyglenn1895]

It's the simple things about this show that I loved -- "What are you doing?" "Is that your question?"

[@IncessantWake]

Fantastic acting from both. This was top tier. You can really hear Raylan feeling grief. Fantastic job to both actors.

[@FredrikAdolvsson]

One of the best scenes of the whole damn show.

[@thebernice6062]

Raylan's swagger, ice cold nerves, and quick wit aren't what make him a fascinating character, his rage does. That rage at people who do wrong and deserve to be punished, everyone identifies with it. His cool exterior is the shiny veneer he wants the world to see, Rylan only ever gives little peaks of how deep his rage is, like this scene. Just like Winona said in the first episode, Raylan is the angriest man you have ever met.

[@jamiestewart48]

His other character, Bullock, is the angriest man you have ever met.

[@Afalstein]

That pilot episode will always be the greatestest episode because it ends PERFECTLY. That single line suddenly brings into clarity everything about Raylan, and suddenly so much about his oddly polite demeanour makes perfect sense.

[@ErikLeber-td7oj]

​@@jamiestewart48 Raylan is basically Bullock, just toned down a bit

[@danieldickson8591]

The loud, blustery guys are not the ones you need to worry about. It's the quiet ones that are really dangerous.

[@bak9033]

Raylan does not lose his cool often in this show but when he does it makes for a badass scene. You can see him tearing up over Toms death as well great acting by Olyphant

[@Kamakzie1976]

That is the same look he would get a lot on Deadwood.

[@danieldickson8591]

When a man who rarely shows anger gets angry, you know it's serious.

[@PatrickForrest-pv4wv]

“Now we’re gonna play by your rules”. Great line.

[@ronarnold1507]

This was probably one of my favorite scenes of all time. So intense, and yet that subtle dark comedic element, too.

[@lowiqsavage]

Did none of the writers on the new show watch the old show? 😒

[@steveosborn7224]

50% of all entertainment is DEI. So some DEI dipshit writer that likely isn’t qualified wrote it.

[@roguecheddar]

Well, if they did, they did a piss poor job of continuing with its qualities.

[@devilfacedjedi]

jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesus chrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrist!!! best secene.

[@MrJoeWildwood]

One of the all-time best scenes of this show! Thank you for posting!

[@demon5928]

Where the scene when he beats up Duffy then drops a bullet on him and says "Next one's coming faster"?

[@markhbeardsley5102]

Raylan actually won a fist fight? I didn't see that episode. 😅

[@MisterSmith00]

Now that...that might have been the best scene on the show. Hard to say. But it's up there.

[@DaddyBeanDaddyBean]

Right up there with the "apricot" scene.

[@carolinagoldbug983]

I need to stop rewatching this scene. It's become an obsession. 😄

[@williamreilly2567]

I think one of my favorite things in this show is how everyone calls him by his first name at some point, even the people that hate him the most. And not just that, but you know they do it with respect.

[@lohi172]

Agreed. And since Raylan is so cool and collected most of the time, you almost think the respect is mutual. I could see myself trusting him. Like he sees them as criminals but also talks to them like they’re people. Idk if it’s genuine or law enforcement training. Great writing!

[@danieldickson8591]

The name "Givens" carries a lot of associations in Harlan County, thanks to Raylan's father. I suspect part of always using his first name is acknowledgement that he's a very different man from Arlo.

[@danieldickson8591]

@@lohi172 Raylan has been dealing with dangerous people his whole life. I expect he figured out the best way to handle them a long time ago.

[@donjaun9835]

Justifies had such get writing and acting. Severely disappointed in the Hulu mini series. It's just nonsense trying to copy the style but missing the mark

[@ConradMurkitt]

It’s hard to believe that any of these actors have had roles either before or after Justified, that were as good as the roles they had in Justified. The show is just on another level

[@CallMeUbba]

Deadwood?

[@ConradMurkitt]

@@CallMeUbba Deadwood was excellent bur I still think Justfied has the edge for Tim as it’s his show more than Deadwood was. Now if we are talking McShane, for me he was Deadwood.

[@jasonmurdoc9533]

Angie Tribeca

[@nationalsocialism3504]

​@ConradMurkitt they were definitely co-leads in an ensemble cast... but Ian definitely was above Tim in that context. Deadwood doesn't work without either of them though

[@gmartinz01]

"Jesus, what is wrong with you?" THAT is a very good question. There is something murderously wrong with Raylan

[@muffinman1]

Definition of badass

[@genaromarin4406]

Well, in the end, Wynn Duffy did go to Midnight Mass thus making him scream "JESUS CHRIST!"

[@keithmorris2879]

Easily one of the greatest tv crime shows of all time!

[@Kevin_Kennelly]

I think I understand the appeal of this show. Raylan meets bad people. They do bad things. He shoots them.

[@VonSpiegel]

Holy shit, man, I miss Raylan so much.

[@SatanicHamsterThe]

Used to have a big glass of Buffalo Trace or Blantons during every episode.

[@SatanicHamsterThe]

I mean, I still drink those, but at a much lesser rate now that the series is over. :(

[@Ben-gb9dv]

He's coming back!

[@letsrevieweverything144]

july 18 on fx justified is back for 8 more episodes.

[@alideucher4070]

Wynn Duffy was such a good character

[@ClayBlasdel44]

His last "JESUS CHRIST!!" sounds unscripted and ad-libbed. Good scene

[@padzzz9377]

I don’t believe I’ve seen Jere Burns since he played Kirk in Dear John. So glad Justified dug him up. Together with Dickie, the finest side character on the show🙌🏼

[@Tuaron]

He's also pretty entertaining in Angie Tribeca, a decent successor (in spirit) to Police Squad/Naked Gun.

[@Semiotichazey]

I remember him from that, but I feel like I've seen him pop up here and there over the year. Very distinctive guy.

[@Tuaron]

@@Semiotichazey Maybe in his brief recurring role in Burn Notice?

[@FridayNightArcade]

Always wondered if Raylan slipped that bullet back in his pocket or if he actually left it in the chamber. Such an awesome scene.

[@andyostertag]

It's a TV show!..dummy round with no guts

[@PeterTX]

Hints of breaking bad.

[@SneakyCheeseThief]

Always wondered the same thing. Even looked to see if maybe they show him sliding it back out. The truth is the whole dynamic of his life could’ve changed in this scene - and even though it bugs me to see Raylan pull a trigger in cold blood (he may be the angriest man in the world, but he only shoots if it’s justified), it’s what makes the scene so compelling and what shows how deeply he feels the loss and injustice of Tom Bergan’s death.

[@James-ch6xb]

Raylan could see which chamber the bullet was in when he lifted the pistol up. He knew how many times he could pull the trigger before the gun actually fired.

[@SneakyCheeseThief]

@@James-ch6xb I think that’s a Smith & Wesson model 19, which has a piece that sits behind the exposed side parts of the cylinder and blocks the cylinder chambers from view. He gives the cylinder a pretty vigorous spin before he flips the swing out closed, so it seems pretty unlikely he’d have any idea which chamber the bullet was in.

[@Deckard-by1qd]

The Bullock in him finally came out.

[@rustydomino]

Duffy: "You can't just come in here and shoot me just because you feel like it!" Raylan: "Why not? Isn't that how you guys do it?" 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

[@lyndondary]

Exceptional show. Olyphant had a habit (intentional or not) of dropping the Southern accent when Raylan was most angry and demanding something, which I thought was very smart, and it really sticks out in this scene when he tells Duffy what's what.

[@projectmolcos]

More charming than a cobra and a thousand times more deadly is Deputy Givens...

[@josephnoneofyourbeeswax8517]

This was such an awesome show! With great actors and actresses and writers!

[@edwardsawtell5712]

On both sides! There was such depth to both the “good guys” and the “bad guys”!

[@DanC-go9lc]

OK, I believe ya. Man do I MISS this show ! Not quite to "Next one's coming faster" level -- but where else can you ever get such utterly genius dialogue ?

[@billdecatur1178]

[@specialk9424]

Jere Burns is great in everything he does. I remember him as "Kirk" in Dear John. He hit it out of the park as Duffy.

[@j.gravett2878]

What amazed me about Wynn Duffy & Dewey Crowe is that they were in dangerous situations constantly throughout the series & yet somehow made it out alive!

[@mattb8961]

Dewey didn’t make it. Boyd killed him. Shot him in the back of the head.

[@MrErizid]

Dewey Crowe gets murdered by Boyd. Duffy was one of the only "bad-guy" survivors of the series.

[@chrispile3878]

Jere Burns was really selling it.

[@J95Young]

This also reminds me of the scene in Snowfall where Franklin questioned Teddy about his money. Beautiful parallels cause both on the other side of the gun swore the other wouldn't pull the trigger

[@pauldockree9915]

Jere Burns - visually Mr Burns made to play Abraham Lincoln. Wynn Duffy. Nope. Nothing. lol The word "Fie". Just. I fied.

[@larryhyak2529]

Great series....glad to see them bring the character back.....

[@Jaybird-oo3ih]

Top notch acting from both and Justified is hard to top I guarantee!

[@tomastelensky-vlog8723]

Wynn is much more passionate about Christ than Boyd! And that's something 😂

[@Afalstein]

Other shows would have made the (understandable) choice to score this with threatening, tense music. Heck, Justified uses musical cues itself frequently. But the absolute lack of music here underscores the savagery of the moment, makes it seem more real. There's no long prelude, no drama to it; Duffy even thinks Raylan is bluffing up until the moment he pulls the trigger. You don't know if the next trigger pull is going to be a empty click or a shot. Instead of music, they let the actors sell the intensity of the scene--and oh boy do they sell it.

[@rhizomorph-music]

Judging by the comments, I think most here don't understand how this play works. The .38 round he put in there is a dummy round... no primer or powder. It won't go off. Of course, Duffy doesn't know this.

[@Gryffilion]

I love how Wynn Duffy's change is so noticeable yet so believable. He's not as impulsively prone to violence in later seasons as when we first meet him. But when he starts yelling you're like, "Ah, yes, this is the guy who screamed at Arnett to show him the Benjamins."

[@garyhardison9265]

Duffy was such a part of this show, underrated for sure

[@TheMoneyJarhead]

[@pederhalvorsen2289]

Ahhh . . . been a few years since I got to see a good old fashioned game of Harlan Roulette. 👍👍

[@mt3311]

See, Raylan was pointing the gun in his direction, not at him directly. But Duffy having been scared shitless by Raylan loading, spinning the chamber, and his little bit about playing by their rules scared the shit out of Duffy. He was too busy trying to think to notice that the gun was pointed to his left. So if it did go off, it wouldn't hit Duffy. A gun going off that appears to be pointing at you, is just as bad as if it WAS pointed at you. You are scared just the same. Raylan bluffed him out of information and gave the correct impression that he was willing to go off the reservation to get information, by any means necessary. Put the fear of Raylan into him. Gotta love that Raylan. His throwing the bullet at Duffy and telling him, "The next one comes faster," line was classic too. He had some good lines with Duffy.

[@steveoh9285]

Haha, the crooks are incredulous when their own methods are used against them. The actor portraying Duffy is marvelous!
