Dan Duryea is always a must see for me as he guest stars in this Laramie story. He plays the patriarch of a mountain man family of trappers who aren't quite civilized. But they have a score to settle with a man the law only convicted of manslaughter who is going off to prison with a stop at the Sherman station.
The Duryea clan runs into a piece of luck when they find John Smith and Robert Fuller on the barn roof painting and without guns. Just a matter of holding them hostage till the arrival.
The surviving Duryea sons are Alex Cord and Jason Evers. Cord is an innocent, but Evers just ain't housebroken for civilization and has a taste for killing. One gets a feeling their brother was no great specimen either as is John Cliff who killed him.
The plot of this episode is taken a lot from the Frank Sinatra movie Suddenly. Think about how that plot was foiled.
