**SPOILERS** Great episode, with Matt tricking a young grifter into a showdown with his equally crooked partner. They kill each other. Problem solved. This was a small horse remuda, looking like about ten animals. The first eight sold for $30 each, and the last two for $20. Grand total $280, or $140 for each of their lives.

I've done this before, so I'll do it again. Matt now recovers the money, and pays out the suckers who got took, and he keeps the horses. What? You say?? YUUUP. What was he supposed to do? Turn them out loose on the prairie? I don't think so. Now, of course, once he got the animals back to Dodge, he could have then sold them to the guys who had been cheated, or returned their money and kept the horses to sell later.

Let's not forget the mounts that Deesha and his thieving buddy rode, either. Matt gets them, too, plus saddles, tack, pistols, rifles, and since they were already there, they probably ate lunch (bacon and beans, no doubt) courtesy of the dead guys. If they had a shovel, they most likely would have buried them right there, or brought a wagon back from town. They would NEVER have left them horses while they rode back to town. Repeat... NEVER. You don't leave good animals just tied up for somebody else to come and take. Ending was stupid with Matt and Chet riding back without those horses and property.

****SPOILERS****

We've all seen the ending where they buried the gunfighter with his weapons, haven't we? Just ask yourself how STUPID that decision would be. The movie "The Last Challenge" comes to mind. Given that it was a stupid movie already, Glenn Ford throws his gun and holster belt into the grave with Chad Everett's body. Same thing happened in "The Fastest Gun Alive". Oh, yeah? Anybody dumb enough to believe that, deserves to get took.

Harry Carey Jr is the main guest star, amazingly, he's findings all his stolen horses being sold to people in Dodge. He claimed they got stolen while he was on the Canadian river, wherever that is. After the 2nd person gets stiffed by his bar S brand, you can tell he was in on this deceiving scheme. Even Dillon realizes this half way thru. All the other people were clueless. No one else was suspicious why this horse thief kept sticking around selling the rest of the horses. I understood Dillon's trap from the get go. The ending was too convenient for Dillon. Chester's last words were ridiculous and stating the obvious "Can't very well put a dead man in jail". I guess Dillon and Chester didn't bury the bodies, as we just see them ride off.

We see Dillon all dressed up taking Kitty out for a horse ride on the prairie. I thought we were going to have a romantic moment, but no, Kitty has to state the talk of the town is Dillon is lazy. Then Chester finds them (I thought he had no sense of direction) and spoils there date. Later, Dillon gives Chester $20 to get Carey drunk. Chester is all happy and its never clear if Dillon gets any change back. And not surprisingly, Chester gets no info from Carey, just booze.
