Tales of Wells Fargo: Dr. Alice (1958)
Season 2, Episode 25
5/10
A Bit Hypocritical
14 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Towards the end of the episode, Jim Hardie shames Dr Alice into taking a bullet out of outlaw Dobie Edwards BEFORE delivering a baby whom they knew would be a difficult birth. Ironically, it was Jim who shot the outlaw when he tried to murder Jim and Dr Alice earlier in the episode. I found Jim's priorities way out of whack, jeopardizing the life of a mother and her baby for that of an outlaw. Maybe the writers thought this was a good idea, but I found it revolting. I would have preferred Dr Alice saved the baby first.

Other than that, the episode was pretty good, but this ending was just too much for me to handle, hence the lower rating.
