Ep 7. Blind Spot

In Justified season 1 episode 7, entitled "Blind Spot," Deputy US Marshal Raylan Givens is tasked with protecting a vital witness in a high-profile case against the notorious Crowder crime family. The witness, a former sniper for the Crowders named Jed Berwind, is in danger from both his former employers and an unknown assassin who seems to be targeting him.

As Raylan works to keep Berwind safe, he must also navigate the complex web of relationships and allegiances that make up the criminal underworld of Harlan County, Kentucky. Raylan's old friend and fellow marshal Art Mullen warns him that the Crowders have eyes and ears everywhere, and that there may be a traitor within their own ranks.

Meanwhile, Raylan's personal life becomes complicated when his ex-wife, Winona Hawkins, returns to town and asks for his help with a domestic disturbance. Raylan is torn between his duty and his lingering feelings for Winona, and finds himself drawn into a dangerous situation that may have grave consequences for both him and Berwind.

With the help of his colleagues at the US Marshals Service and a few unlikely allies in the criminal underworld, Raylan sets out to neutralize the danger and bring the Crowders to justice.

But even as Raylan seeks to protect Berwind and uphold the law, he is forced to confront his own demons and reconcile with his troubled past. In the end, "Blind Spot" is not just a thrilling crime drama but a character study of a man struggling to find his place in a world of violence, betrayal, and moral ambiguity.
