Jack Lord in between TV Series Stoney Burke and Hawaii 5-0 puts in a guest appearance on Laredo as a mysterious bounty hunter/gun for hire who is hired by Laraine Stephens to help affect a prison break. Not of her husband who is scheduled to hang in a few days, but another man who could lead Lord to the stolen money that could clear Stephens's husband.
What was interesting in this episode is the relationship that develops between Lord and Neville Brand. The way Reese Bennett is played by the other two Rangers is what happens with Lord and Reese who is on the trail of the same escaped prisoner in his capacity as a Ranger. Lord plays him like a piccolo, but in the end Brand saves Lord's life.
I think this episode was a possible pilot for another series that could have starred Lord. Anyway bigger things were in his future.
