Episode 4 starts in the old west as restaurant owner Maggie (Ellen Corby) is having little business due to bad weather, with help from Ben (Casey McGregor) who Maggie sends to town to receive fire wood. It isn't long before gunman Dell Delaney (Gene Berry) shows up seeming very unsteady, later Red Hillman (Darren McGavin) shows up and the fight is on. While both Dell and Red imply an impending gunfight is about to happen Maggie does what she can to save the men if all possible...
This one is a big change from the first two episodes dropping the contemporary setting for that of the old west. This one is mostly a psychological western character study with three talented actors Darren McGavin of Kolchak: The Night Stalker fame, Gene Berry of Bat Masterson fame, and Ellen Corby who everyone knows as Grandma Walton. There is also little twist that I didn't see coming. Overall a nice change of pace here.
