This episode starts out strangely.
Did Major Adams wake up on the wrong side of the wagon? He is growling and snapping at everyone. This is way beyond gruff. Maybe the writers thought it was funny.
The whole conman storyline barely made sense. These would-be settlers give him their life savings for unseen land based on his maybe friendship with the Major?
Then the conman loses ALL of the money on a crooked roulette wheel? If you think the game is rigged, would you keep betting anyway?
The chase scenes make no sense either. The Major and the conman hide out in a school building (with their horses) that has appeared in the middle of nowhere.
What makes this worth watching at all is Karen Steele. I had previously seen her first in ST:TOS Mudd's Women and Get Smart. I am interested in seeing her in previous roles, and she does not disappoint.
Guy Madison also played the charming conman. You almost wish he could have gotten away with his schemes. Also, that he was a little smarter in the use of his ill-gotten gains.
