Newly (Muley) always acted like he was still a little kid in the Boy Scouts. Once he joined the cast, Ms. Kitty got kidnapped a lot less, and it was sweet Muley that got beaten up, kidnapped, blackmailed, tricked by women, shot at, and verbally abused. Muley's amazingly sunny personality and pledge to never shoot anyone seemed to attract villains. Between lame Chester, illiterate Festus, and Newly Muley, Marshal Dillon never picked a straight shooter as deputy.
In this episode, Muley goes out of his way to intrude into a group that thinks surgery is a sin. Muley forces them to allow him to perform surgery on an old man who was dying, and he dies. The hillbillies decide Muley caused his death. They called it murder, but they meant "medical malpractice." Either way, the best solution would have been for Muley to die. It would have made the show a lot better.
Doc & Festus come to the rescue, and good old Doc, who was the best member of the cast after James Arness, gets shot. It is up to Muley to save Doc's life. Can he do it?
