John Dehner is brilliant as he plays gunfighter Nate Springer that obviously has seen better days. Nate, a once surefire man with a gun, now seems to be strangely jumpy as he enters Dodge to take care of business.
Matt first encounter with Nate is enough for Matt to know that he is a gunfighter. But Matt also knows from Nate's action that something is not right with the man but he is set on finding out who hired Nate and who Nate is going to murder. But when Nate shoots a dog and draws on a saloon girl, Matt believes Nate has lost his nerve. The true test will come when Matt finds out who Nate intends to kill.
Cannot say enough about character actor John Dehner. Looking back, no other person could have done a better job of playing the jumpy gunfighter. Add in a nicely written story and the start of season three could not have been better.
