Warning: Spoilers
Spoiler Alert: I like this episode. The ten or so robbers are shown to be merciless killers. Their total greed is well portrayed when they take over the blacksmith shop and work to melt down a huge gold bar. The best part is when they try to ride out of town in their soldier disguises, taking Matt, intending to kill him. The suspicious town folk, 20 or so, armed, ride slowly following. There's a big shootout--the villains have a gatling gun! Most of the robbers bite the dust, which they richly deserve. I like that the town people were shown as brave, armed, and ready to fight evil. Good episode.
