**SPOILERS** I'm givin it a 10 because I liked the Burro, and Sue George is lookin good. Besides that, They made a big deal about buying a button for frontier days or getting arrested for NOT wearing a beard. Well, right after they made that point, the sheriff, two deputies, the ranch foreman, Paul, and half of the rest of the town weren't wearing beards OR Buttons! One bad thing is getting old; one good thing about getting old, is remembering certain things that were real important way back when. Like Uranium, and the interest in finding it for nuclear development. It was paying BIG. If there was no gold, why not "U"? Ya had to be there, I guess.
Of course, the star of the show is the sweet little burro, Sheba. After all the good service she had done for Amos, the guy who'd taken a payoff from the dead guy's cheating slut wife (kinda hot, too), was never gonna abandon her, was he? Well yeah, kinda. After all, he DID leave her tied to a bush without unloading her, didn't he? Did he feed and water her then? Nope. He just left her. One thing these Directors and Producers always overlook is that you DO NOT want to park your horse, mule, or burro next to your well, or your campfire (flies, understand?). A good friend like Sheba should have had a regular place to be corralled whenever Amos wasn't around, and feed and water as well. Another thing that these guys usually overlook is currying off; I'm gonna say that I hope Sheba got more respect after she saved Perry's client's bacon.
Then, too, Amos HAD to come back and get her at some point because she walked in Bascombe's blood, didn't she? So they HAD to know Amos was still around (hiding in the mine). Burros are afraid of rattlesnakes, and someone should have seen to that, too, you know?
Anyway, with the cat out of the bag, so to speak, Hazel (dead guy's old lady) and Roy (dirtbag foreman) may hang together for awhile, but probably not; just look up how well dirtbags do at relationships. One part that mystifies me is that fact that Bascombe DIDN'T want the mine, or property, just water. So why not lease it to him? Perry Mason was a genius at arranging such contracts, wasn't he? However, the presence of Uranium AND WATER made Perry's clients incredibly wealthy. IF they had any brains, they let him do ALL the legal and financial work for them.
Kudos to Della for being there, Paul for giving Perry a little grief, and, of course, Sheba.... for saving the day.
