Tuco' s comment about not talking when it's time to do the deed applies to everything: "When you have to shoot, shoot; don't play games."

this show is endlessly brilliant. fortunately there's tons of amazing clips on youtube, like this, for me to revisit. this scene is an example of some of the best stuff on tv in the past decade (ie: breaking bad): the writers create an INESCAPABLE situation and yet find a way for the protagonist to win. brilliant

When your opponent reads the scouting report 😂

Originally they had a different ending planned were Raylan flipped table but then Timothy Olyphant figured it out the tablecloth move messing around with a banana in the kitchen.

I always wanted to see more of Nix, along with a dozen other killers that Raylan either outgunned or outsmarted throughout the show.

One of the best shows ever

Gotta admire how Raylan showed like absolutely no fear. Just chilling, the cold yet determined look in his eyes when the lady was counting down!

You know, for a long time I wondered about this scene. I always thought with Raylan's upbringing, and Arlo *being* Arlo, I wondered if Arlo ever taught Raylan that "game", and that's how he knew how to get out of it. It's never explicitly said, but I did wonder.

That guy had soulless eyes

Raylan, a true badass.

Never bring an ice pick to a gun fight. 😉

Raylan looked unsure how to deal with this situation, until Nix told Winona to count down. Then his whole demeanor changed. You could see him thinking, "This is my kind of game now, and I know his play." Raylan's near-smile at 2:29 shows he knows how to win.

Raylan knows what he will try to do (as does the viewer), based on that scene. Desmond Harrington is an actor of the same caliber as TO. Maybe the best villain in the series.

You do kinda need the context that this is what he’s known for, for it to be as cool. I’m sure people still enjoyed it who didn’t know. But the whole suspense of the scene, and therefore the payoff to the suspense, is that the viewer is supposed to be aware that he will stab Raylans hand with the ice pick as Raylan goes for the gun.
