Storyline:
"About to set out on a cattle drive, Ben hires a young drifter named Sam Jackson as one of his drovers. What he doesn't know is that Jackson is really outlaw Johnny Logan, who signed on to the drive because he knew it was going to pass near the town of Waycross, and Logan is determined to kill the Waycross sheriff--who is his father."

Reviews:
"Characters involved: Father and son - John and Johnny Logan.

Main Characters: Hoss and Ben Cartwright. Little Joe and Adam are MIA.

For some odd reason, land tycoon and probably one of the richest men of his time is doing his own cattle drive with Hoss. He's desperate for hands and hires some with questionable reputations. Along comes a young man who seems really nice and all, but he was in prison and now wants to kill his father for putting him there.

The episode was a good one. There's a good lesson about tough love and accepting your family's mistakes and all. The characters were believable.

One thing about having an episode with a lot of character actors is watching several different of our baddies coming together to be bad and good. Every episode is unique, but it's nice to see the actor's character seems to have a lot in common show to show. Good episode.

"This Bonanza episode has Ben Cartwright and Hoss taking a herd of cattle from Texas back to Nevada where they run into a town that has one strict sheriff in James Westerfield. I'm guessing the pickings were mighty slim in the way of trail hands because he hires veteran western heavy Robert J. Wilke and his crew to drive the herd back to the Ponderosa. The only one not with Wilke is trail cook Edgar Buchanan.

Also with Wilke is young Dick Davalos who like Wilke has a grudge against Sheriff Westerfield and wants to shoot him on sight. Davalos is a mean kid with a chip on his shoulder and Westerfield is his dad.

I think you see that this has the ingredients of a shooting showdown and the episode delivers. Edgar Buchanan as the foxy old reprobate cook really delivers in his scene stealing performance. He's worth the episode all by himself." Written by bkoganbing on IMDb.com
