Complete story — includes the ending

Raylan visits Boyd and asks for incriminating evidence on Arlo. Winona asks Raylan to look into her husband Gary's possibly illegal activities, which he warns Gary to keep her out of. He is sent to Cincinnati when embezzler Owen Carnes tries to sell Hitler paintings to gallery owner Karl Hanselman, who reveals they are fake. When Carnes and his wife Caryn confront the seller, she has Greg Davis, a worker she is having an affair with, kill Carnes to prevent him from going to trial and losing Caryn their assets. The death is staged as a suicide, but Raylan, suspecting foul play, confronts Greg and warns him that killing with witnesses always creates more death. Frightened, Greg refuses to kill the seller when Caryn orders him to and sells her out to the police. Hanselman explains to Raylan why he collects Hitler paintings: his father did as well, so in defiance, he made a hobby of buying and burning them. Moved by this, Raylan returns to Boyd and turns down his offer of discovered information.
