A troubling tale of love between an ostracized man and an oppressed girl, with an extra helping of jealousy from her would-be fiancé.
Anna's father rules his household with an iron fist allowing her only the escape of her music for one hour each day as she performs monotonous chores around the family boarding house in Cleveland. Dvorovoi can't stand the way her betrothed, Orlov, treats her with a violent controlling manner similar to her father's so they fight an impassioned battle over her. Buz and Tod open her eyes with a rare showing of kindness at just the right time for her not-so-secret admirer to open his heart and win her over. This pits her gloomy upbringing against the ray of hope to be happy with a man with a price on his head. The open-ended conclusion leaves the viewer to imagine their fate.
Shot at the double-track New York Central railroad drawbridge over the Cuyahoga River just down the tracks from "The Mistake By The Lake", this episode of Route 66 provides a time capsule for railfans. A couple NYC F-units pull a train over the bridge during the climactic getaway scene near the end.
