"The Spoil" is the eighth episode of the second season of the American Neo-Western[1] television series Justified. It is the 21st overall episode of the series and was written by supervising producer Dave Andron from a story by Andron and executive producer Elmore Leonard and directed by Michael Watkins. It originally aired on FX on March 30, 2011.
The series is based on Elmore Leonard's stories about the character Raylan Givens, particularly "Fire in the Hole", which serves as the basis for the episode. The series follows Raylan Givens, a tough deputy U.S. Marshal enforcing his brand of justice. Following the shooting of a mob hitman, Raylan is sent to Lexington, Kentucky to investigate an old childhood friend Boyd Crowder, who is now part of a white supremacist gang. In the episode, Raylan is assigned to protect Carol Johnson while she attempts to convince Harlan County residents to sell their land rights over to Black Pike. Despite being credited, Jacob Pitts does not appear in the episode.
According to Nielsen Media Research, the episode was seen by an estimated 2.64 million household viewers and gained a 0.9/2 ratings share among adults aged 18–49. The episode received highly positive reviews from critics, who praised the writing, pace, acting and build-up for the next episode.
