Justified (TV series)/Characters: Difference between revisions

* [[Perma Stubble]]

* [[Properly Paranoid]]: He survived this long by distrusting situations that seem too easy and thus being able to spot when someone is setting a trap for him.

* [[Tranquil Fury]]

* [[Unaccustomed As I Am to Public Speaking]]: Subverted. When Raylan tells Art that he is not very good at testifying in court, Art dismisses it as this trope since he knows how good Raylan is in talking himself out of trouble. It turns out that Raylan really is very bad at speaking in official settings.

* [[Took a Level In Badass]]: Just prior to the series. She enters the series just after shooting her abusive husband dead at the dinner table. She takes another level when she {{spoiler|kills Delroy}} to protect Ellen May.

* [[You Are What You Hate]]: Throughout the series, Ava demonstrated contempt for men who abuse women, killing her abusive husband Bowman and {{spoiler|shooting Delroy after he threatened to kill Ellen May.}} In "Slaughterhouse," however, she showed no qualms about pushing and slapping Ellen May herself.

== Tonin Family and associates ==

* [[Reassigned to Antarctica]]: While the idea to go to Kentucky was his own, his nastier habits were drawing so much heat that his bosses in Detroit probably were not sad to see him go. When he again draws the attention of the authorities his bosses don't hesitate to cut him off and leave him stranded in Kentucky with no money or support.

* [[Ruthless Foreign Gangsters]]: Boyd refers to him as a carpetbagger in reference to the fact that he is a Northerner who came to the southern community of Harlan to make his fortune by exploiting the locals. [[Word of God]] is that the character is referred to as "The Carpetbagger" in the scripts for the third season.

* [[The Unfavorite]]: When he was orphaned he was raised by a mob boss and treated as an adopted son. He always though of himself as the favorite and he is extremely angry that he fell out of favor and the boss's real son took his spot. His main motivation seems to be to become the favorite son once again.

* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: Quarles is quickly spiralling downward, now that {{spoiler|the Detroit mob has cut him off}} and his plans for Harlan County are unravelling.

* [[Loan Shark]]

* [[Reasonable Authority Figure]]: Subverted. He likes to present himself as a reasonable businessman but when things are not going his way he uses people like Wynn Duffy or Fletcher Nix to do his dirty work for him.

 

=== Wynn Duffy ===

* [[Reasonable Authority Figure]]: He is quite willing to give a subordinate a second chance but if the subordinate screws up again, he will treat it as a personal betrayal and act accordingly.

* [[Refuge in Audacity]]: His plan to take down Boyd, Quarles and Dickie Bennett all at once relies on the fact the setup is so crazy that noone will suspect it was all pre-planned. {{spoiler|Boyd and Raylan see right through it}}

* [[Simpleton Voice]]: He uses a 'country bumpkin' accent when talking to outsiders. It is most noticable when he is talking to Quarles and he does not use it when talking to Boyd. When he tries to pull the routine on Raylan, Raylan tells him to knock it off.

* [[Team Switzerland]]: His base is in a remote mountain community, he maintains neutrality in the various gang wars and acts as a banker for many of the criminals in the area. He believes that the only way for his community to survive is not to take sides in the disputes of the white gangs in the area.

* [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]]: how most of the people in Harlan County see her

* [[Fiery Redhead]]

* [[Punch Clock Villain]]: She has no ill will towards the residents of Harlan County but it is her job to make sure that the mining company gets the land it needs to start a new mine. She does not think it her concern that the mine will pollute the area and that an activist died documenting this. When all the deals are closed she will simply go where the company sends her and do it all over again.
