Maverick: Point Blank (1957)
Season 1, Episode 2
7/10
Picked to be a patsy
15 March 2018
Warning: Spoilers
After a dispute at cards James Garner winds up in Sheriff Richard Garland's jail, but pretty saloon girl Karen Steele bails Bret Maverick out and gives him a job in the saloon watching for card cheats.

But Steele who is from St. Louis doesn't quite seem to fit in this jerk water town and possibly that's why she's got men panting all over for her. One of them is bank teller Michael Connors who is in with Steele on a plan to rob the bank.

These two also have fitted out Garner for a prime role as a patsy.

All I'll say is you have to get up pretty early in the morning to fool Bret Maverick as he slowly slips into his well known character as someone who just can't quite take life too seriously.
