This is one of the better written scripts which has the viewer on the edge of their seat for the entire run of the episode. This plot is as timely today as it was in the late 1800's.
The situation involves the selling of stolen horses. Charlie Deesha confronts Emmett Bowers on Front street and advises that he is riding one of his stolen horses that has his brand. Turns out that Bowers had bought six horses from a traveling man and all are the property of Deesha. When other men across the prairie buy stolen horses, Matt knows something is up around Dodge. With the men wanting to lynch the person involved Matt pleas with them to let him have one week to solve the case. That will be just enough time for Matt to set up his trap.
A very entertaining story that was well cast and well directed. Near the end there are some close-up shots that enhanced the viewer's experience plus some real notable quotes. When one of the characters says 'I'm going to die now, I feel it coming'- that line was so chilling that hairs on your neck will actually stand. An all around nice watch to a very well written story.
