In Final Justice, the backstory of the senseless murder of Walker's parents is chronicled. The episode opens with Walker visiting Silas Quint, a former white supremacist and dangerous con in prison isolation who is seeking atonement for past sins. He reveals that the killer of Walker's parents, long thought dead, is very much alive. His interest piqued and with renewed determination to seek justice for the racially charged murders, Walker begins a quest to find the killer.
This episode is like old home week; it features three phenomenal character actors who were mainstays in over four decades of television. The talented William Smith, perhaps the best TV villain in history, plays the wild haired, wide-eyed Quint in an all-too-brief but certainly pivotal role that sets up the hour. Good too is Clu Gulager, who also played television heavies in a number of westerns during the 60's and 70's. This time he plays good guy Duke Jamison, a one-time world champion rodeo star fallen on hard times and ill health who helps Walker find his quarry. Finally, John Vernon, another great small screen villain in dozens of detective shows and dramas of the era, plays vile protagonist Clint Murdock. Memorable episode of "Walker" and a treat to watch.
