Proof that Girard just doesn't get it....

When the show begins, Girard is right on Kimble's tail...chasing him down in some southern town. However, when Kimble runs onto land controlled by a clan of violent moonshiners, things take a real wild turn. While Kimble is eventually able to convince these folks that he's harmless, Girard is not so fortunate. They ASSUME he attacked a woman and beat her and are going to string him up for a crime he didn't commit...yet, oddly, Girard never considers that his predicament is in so many ways like Kimble's. And, when Kimble helps Girard escape death, Girard, as usual, is all business and won't give up his dogged chase. Nice to see the man learned absolutely NOTHING from the episode, huh?!

This is a decent episode except that all the hillbilly histrionics are a bit tough to believe and are very stereotypical. Still, worth seeing but not among the best of the shows.
