Things get down to the nitty gritty in this Big Valley story where Lee Majors, Richard Long, and Barbara Stanwyck are on a stagecoach and are first misdirected to cross a desert and then held up where the shotgun man is killed and they are left without food or water to cross a desert.
The others who survive are driver Kevin Hagen, widow Norma Crane, and a gun salesman Lamont Johnson who's a drunk. But as we see these folks under pressure we learn all of their stories. Especially Johnson who with the help of a stray wild horse provides the key to their salvations.
This episode in addition to the action is quite a character study of the Barkleys and the other passengers. Recommended highly.
