The series is based on Elmore Leonard's stories about the character [[Raylan Givens]], particularly "Fire in the Hole", which serves as the basis for the episode. The series follows Raylan Givens, a tough deputy U.S. Marshal enforcing his own brand of justice. Following the shooting of a mob hitman, Raylan is sent to [[Lexington, Kentucky]] to investigate an old childhood friend Boyd Crowder, who is now part of a white supremacist gang. In the episode, Raylan is assigned to guard an eccentric judge, but Raylan takes time off from the assignment to track down an old lead connected with the Crowders. Despite being credited, [[Erica Tazel]] and [[Natalie Zea]] do not appear in the episode.
Line 42 ⟶ 33:
Raylan ([[Timothy Olyphant]]) finds Boyd ([[Walton Goggins]]) in the woods, having formed a church to help drug addicts and other spiritually reformed criminals, threatening them to quit their habits. Raylan uses the moment to expose Boyd's crimes as well as offering a reward to anyone who can help putting him back in jail and then leaves.
 
An ambulance arrives at a house, where Judge Mike "The Hammer" Reardon ([[Stephen Root]]) was bitten by a snake. Raylan is assigned to protect him despite being embarrassed by Reardon's eccentric behavior. While escorting him, Reardon is [[Carbon monoxide poisoning|poisedpoisoned with carbon monoxide]] through the car's exhaust system. Raylan is also trying to locate Pastor Israel Fandi ([[Doug E. Doug]]), who now changed his name and occupation. Ambulances arrive in time to save Reardon. Meanwhile, Johnny ([[David Meunier]]) visits Boyd in the woods after Boyd threatened a nearby [[Rolling meth lab|meth lab]]. He tells Boyd that Bo is angry at the threat but Boyd does not give it importance. That night, Boyd and his followers take the meth dealers out of their RV and burn it. However, the dealers reveal that a person was inside the RV.
 
Raylan visits Fandi, who refuses to testify against Boyd. While at a bar with Reardon, Raylan notices a man ([[Sean Bridgers]]) watching them and confronts the man. He later finds that he is Virgil Corum, a convict charged with illegal possessions and whose background fits all of Reardon's recent events. Virgil eventually catches Reardon in the parking lot of a club, intending to kill him. Raylan arrives in time and tries to calm him down. However, Reardon pulls out a gun and shoots Virgil, wounding him. Virgil reveals having been planned to use the murder as a way to give his ex-wife and kid money.
