the question, the finale, the season.

Aaron, how'd you feel about this closer?

So we thought the last couple of episodes that this show is kind of mostly firing all cylinders and, you know, doing the Elmore things and ziggin where he thought it should

zag in and it's it's setting up to like this climactic Rayland climax which we

learned through feedback might not even be a real justified thing, you know?

It might be one of the things like, play it again Sam or I am your father, Luke I am your father.

It's like that's not actually how it goes down, it's how everybody thinks it goes down.

And I felt like we came into this episode

firing on all cylinders and immediately

like a spark plug fouled, air intake clogged, and it started choking and wheezing quite a bit.

I think about half of this episode worked, and half of it felt like, boy, it either needed a couple more episodes to develop some of these things to where they felt more believable or or maybe so cut into the

that like maybe that cut into the resolution of the Klim thing or maybe

Klim's just a fart in the wind and you can just blow him away

with a stiff breeze at the end of the day once all of his protections are gone.

But it didn't feel it satisfying. I like the epilogues quite a lot and that's what's like going into the epilogues I'm like boy wow when you think about you

put this to the Indiana Jones test right you got the last crusade and you got the crystal skull boy do you really want the

crystal skull to be now this isn't the crystal skull this isn't like even

season five justified which I think is the most mediocre of the justified seasons.

But it's not nearly the love letter and perfect satisfying
