Complete story — includes the ending

Bo is released after Mosley's arrests are reviewed. "Security consultant" Wynn Duffy visits Winona's house and makes veiled threats towards her, though Gary denies knowing him. AUSA David Vasquez comes to the Lexington office to interview Raylan about Boyd's shooting, but is interrupted by an inmate taking a pair of guards hostage. Needing to avoid more scrutiny by killing him in front of Vasquez, Raylan earns his trust with fried chicken, talking the man into surrendering. Vasquez reveals that Boyd's lawyer is using Raylan and Ava's relationship to claim that Bowman's murder and Boyd's shooting were premeditated, getting Boyd released early. Raylan greets him and promises to put him back in jail, though Boyd remains pious.
