> [@OHS201](#): > > I didn’t like the hat. You wear a fallen enemy’s hat because you respect him, and Boone was NOT worthy of any respect at all. You wear the hat because you like it. Remember when Boone asked him if he liked the hat and Raylan looked thoughtful and serious when he said he did? There you go - no honoring the foe, just the spoils of war. Why let a perfectly good hat go to waste :)? ---

> [@Dewey\_Finn](#): > > Thinking about the series overall, I don’t remember them ever going to crystal meth production or distribution as the main story, despite the rural stereotypes. (The Robert Quarles storyline did involve Oxycontin abuse, but not crystal meth, as I remember.) It wasn’t big, but I thought Boyd’s father was in the meth business and Boyd was destroying his trailers way back in season 1. Could just be fuzzy memory failing me again though… ---

Could just be fuzzy memory failing me again though… Yep, that’s my memory too. There were a few meth trailer explosions; but not much else. I guess meth addicts don’t make bad enough villains. 🙂 ---

I thought Raylan said he bought the first hat that fit. I did not think that was Boone’s hat at all. I just can’t imagine Raylan wearing the hat another person had already worn. ---

There you go - no honoring the foe, just the spoils of war. Why let a perfectly good hat go to waste :)? Also, it could be considered a trophy. His last big victory before he settled down and stopped having gunfights every other week. ---

I just can’t imagine Raylan wearing the hat another person had already worn. From this interview of Olyphant and Goggins in the NY Times: [http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2015/04/14/justified-finale-interview-timothy-olyphant-walton-goggins/?smid=nytimesarts&\_r=0](http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2015/04/14/justified-finale-interview-timothy-olyphant-walton-goggins/?smid=nytimesarts&_r=0) > [@](#): > > Q. > Did you keep the hat? > > A. > OLYPHANT: No. > > Q. > It seems like a natural memento. > > A. > OLYPHANT: What am I gonna do with it? > > Q. > Put it in your den or something? > > A. > OLYPHANT: I’ll tell you what I did do: I kept the other hat. [In the finale, Raylan kills a hired gun and takes his hat.] I had that one made for me. I’ve always said let’s kill the hat before we kill Raylan, you know? Elmore never liked the hat. Let’s put a bullet in the hat. Then I thought, I should get another hat, one that I didn’t wear for six years. So then I get a free hat out of the show. > > Q. > You’re wearing it right now, aren’t you? > > A. > OLYPHANT: [Laughs.] I wear it everywhere. It’s awesome. It’s got a matchstick in it. It’s a good-looking hat. Interesting. ---

There’s a follow-up question, which is for how much? I’m like, you know, there’s no naked girls in this scene but otherwise this is pretty much everything you’ve ever asked for in entertainment. \* 😛 ---

I loved Justified but it got real boring after the limosine/private jet scene (you know what I mean if you watch it, and it won’t spoil it for anyone else). [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/justified-final-season-open-spoilers/710394.md?page=14)
