- Choo-Choo justifies killing Calhoun Schrier

Mundo, aka Choo-Choo, is a henchman of Avery Markham and one of the antagonists of the TV show Justified. He was portrayed by Duke Davis Roberts.

Biography
Mundo used to serve in Iraq with Ty Walker and Seabass, but was discharged after receiving a head wound when he was hit by flying shrapnel, permanently damaging his brain. After the war ended, Ty, Mundo and Seabass started working for Markham, and Mundo gained the nickname "Choo-Choo" due to the fact that he hits you hard and you don't see it coming.

Choo-Choo first appears in "Cash Game", when Ty orders him to follow US marshal Raylan Givens after he interrogates Calhoun Schrier, but Raylan realises he's being followed, forces Choo-Choo to pull over and commandeers his car, leaving Choo-Choo by the side of the road. Choo-Choo later manages to hitchhike back to Ty's HQ with Tim Gutterson, Raylan's partner. Discussing the situation, Choo-Choo repeatedly expresses his desire to kill Raylan.

Choo-Choo makes two minor appearances in "Noblesse Oblige", as he captures one of Boyd Crowder's lackeys spying on Markham, but she bluffs her way out. His other appearance in the episode comes when Markham has Choo-Choo and Seabass abduct Boyd and bring him to him.

In "Sounding", Ty, Seabass and Choo-Choo meet at The Portal, Markham's restaurant, to discuss the fact that either Raylan or Boyd is interfering with Markham's plan. Choo-Choo threatens Natalie, a waitress who he saw stealing from the cash register, and Ty concludes that Calhoun probably knows something and sends Seabass and Choo-Choo to interrogate him. During the interrogation, Calhoun refuses to cooperate and Choo-Choo, acting under instructions from Seabass, punches Calhoun in the head. However, Choo-Choo's strength combined with Calhoun's age causes the blow to kill Calhoun, leaving Seabass and Choo-Choo with no other option but to call Ty and get him to come over.

The following episode, "Alive Day", sees Ty discussing how to cover up Calhoun's murder with Seabass and Choo-Choo. Seabass realises that Calhoun's prostitute Caprice saw him and Choo-Choo enter, with Choo-Choo opting to kidnap and murder her as atonement for killing Calhoun. However, Choo-Choo begins to have a change of heart after kidnapping Caprice, so Markham persuades Ty to kill him. Ty shows up at the place where Caprice is being held and prepares to execute Choo-Choo, but Raylan and Gutterson show up to rescue Caprice and in the confusion Ty is shot in the shoulder by Raylan and runs away. Choo-Choo rushes to his car to try and escape but is shot repeatedly by Raylan and Gutterson as he drives away, eventually bleeding out in his car, which ironically stops on a railway line and is smashed to pieces by a train with the dying Choo-Choo still inside.
