I really don't know what to say about Boyd's mind.... I really don't. He damn near convinced Avon to take out his frustration of the situation by killing Daryl Crowe Jr..... and had the rest of the meeting there mesmerized and watching it happen. He would have won no matter what happened if Rayan and Miller wouldn't have walked in. Masterful manipulation.
Daryl: "
goddayum I'll TAKE the 10% Boyd, what the fukk, mayne!"
Boyd: "
SHUT UP, DARYL, IT'S ALREADY TOO LATE FOR THAT!" (smiley used because that seems to be boyd's expression a lot of the time)
Daryl: "okay"
and there again was what I'd like to call that "awkward pause" in Boyd's thought processes whenever he nudges Raylan in a friendly manner and Raylan approaches things like he should.
Boyd: "
Now, Raylan, may I be excused from the table?"
Raylan: "No, Boyd, you may not!
"
Boyd: "................
"
It's a small wonder people once assumed Boyd and Raylan were in cahoots.
I kinda think the reason- yes, everyone's said it already. Raylan was so bothered and scrunchy faced during Hot Rod's death because he saw him and Boyd. He might as well just make Boyd his snitch, let Boyd run shyt and get it over with.
I'm not going to get into my hate for Dewey Crowe or whiny, too dumb to live characters like him. Or into my... fascination for Wendy's wide eyed, twitchy, overly caffeinated and fukkable character.
I'm gonna instead say that this 180 degree (not 360 degree you fukking morons) turn in Art and Raylan's relationship made me feel down, man. Art really pulled the "IM THE BOSS" routine with him. He was like his son just a season ago.
