Gets a 10 because of Susan Cummings. Not the part, just because she was Hott. It's always nice to see Matt separate bullies from their own reality, and while doing so, impress a sweet beauty who later has to run away to be with him; and gone from the nasty piece of work, Sheriff Rawlins.

She says she's a good shot, and even brings her own rifle, but doesn't bring water (city girl). Exceedingly pretty, but kinda dumb (excusable), she let's a chance to shoot one of the ambushers go, to warn Matt; who, of course, kills him. She's lightly wounded, and Matt gets her on into Dodge. Now, you just gotta ask yourself - What in the hell is Matt thinking? She says she's leaving when she's up and about, and he doesn't do anything at all? This was a Horse Opera in the truest sense of the words.

Again, after wasting the two paid assassins, Matt inexplicably leaves their guns, gear, horses just layin' on the prairie. Right out of "Lone Rangerville". I mean, it's okay to leave the killers for buzzard bait, but everything else is booty, free, and clear. Seems like a tough attitude, but it was a tough time. Problem of mine is that it wouldn't have taken anything much to show a little more reality. In this case, he might have left the horses with the farmer who let Matt use his spring wagon to get Stella (great name), on into Dodge. She meets Kitty, and I wonder if SHE told HER that Matt was taken; always a possibility?

To review is " To consider retrospectively; look back on: " and so I look back on the price of a beer back then of what Matt said to the bartender of a whopping twenty five-cents in Tascosa (compare decades later of that's what we paid in the 1970s when back in college), while the price of a beer back in Dodge was, at that time, only a nickel.
