Season 4, Episode 35
8/10
I never knew that gunslinger's had a code of ethics.
15 August 2013
Jack Lambert at his menacing best as a gunslinger named Kin Creed that invades Dodge City with the intention of outdrawing Matt Dillon in a gunfight. In fact, Mr Creed is waiting for the right time to be called the 'person that killed Matt Dillon' but Matt is not just going to get in a gunfight for no reason. So now Creed is terrorizing the town to draw Matt in a fight.

When he finally gets Matt to face him on the street, Matt gets shot in the arm knocking the gun from his hand. Now we can only assume that there is some gunslinger's 'code of ethics' since now Creed will let Matt fix his arm before meeting Matt in the street for another round of gun-play.

With should a interesting show the ending seemed almost surreal. With such a great set-up it was rather disappointing to have the episode end on an side note. However the story still came off well and the episode entertaining. Good watch.
