Frazer Hines is Carl. One of the many boys used as child labour by Gessler.
Carl has escaped but Gessler wants him returned.
Gessler is also in conflict with Count Heinemann, who wants a few of the boys returned to the Swiss families.
Hoping that will placate the locals. With Count Heinemann also would like to get some plaudits from the Swiss.
William Tells puts himself at risk from execution to have the rest of the boys freed.
This is a good opportunity to see Fraser Hines in his early child acting roles.
LIke other ITC serials of the 1950s it is also an allegorical episode. Probably relating to treatment of children by the Nazis as slave labour.
