Raylan Givens was never the kind of man to let someone insult or threaten him and walk away. This is usually how our beloved U.S. marshal got into trouble on the original six-season run of Justified, by refusing to let something — an injustice, a crime — slide, and that quality remains intact when we see our guy and his cowboy hat again in Justified: City Primeval.

His 15-year-old daughter, Willa (played by Olyphant’s own daughter Vivian), though? Or lawyer Carolyn Wilder (Aunjanue Ellis) or judge Alvin Guy (Keith David)?
