This is a particularly well-done episode. There's a Cornish family in town, with a domineering father and a daughter who doesn't want to be held to the Old World customs. Dad has promised her to a man she doesn't want to marry, a guy from Cornwall.
That guy is played by Pernell Roberts, who just blew me away with his performance here. He's quiet but powerful, always pretty much in the background. But when he speaks, he's so sincere and strong. And with an excellent Cornish accent, no less.
There's a local hothead who flirts with the girl, and wants a shootout with the Dad, but everything works out fine. (P. S. On a totally trivial note, I'd just like to say that as a woman, I found Mr. Roberts to be smoking hot here.)
