There isn't any spoiler as you know who the killer is from the start: it's the judge. The only question is who will figure out first that the judge is Black Jack: the judge's wife, Rose; or the wife's sister, Lilac. The judge lives out in the middle of nowhere and has a rule: no strangers are ever to be allowed in the house. A good rule considering his avocation as a robber and murderer.
The judge has the reputation as a hanging judge. He claims it's because he hates stupidity; and he sees criminals as basically stupid. As Cheyenne is trapped in the judge's house for the winter, what follows is a cat and mouse game between Cheyenne and the judge.
An interesting episode with a side story. Lilac is lonely and wants a man. Stuck out where she is, there aren't a lot of candidates. She realizes she doesn't love Cheyenne, but she does get him to agree to talk her with him when the spring thaw arrives.
Worth a watch. Andrew Duggan gives a a good performance playing off his stereotype as a villain. Really, he played the bad guy way too often.
