Tim Tebow's Great-Grand-Pappy?
Long before Tim Tebow won the Heisman Trophy in 2007, and the College Football National Championship in 2006 and 2008 with the Florida Gators; a character named Tebow was stealing horses and randomly killing prairie folks in the 1870s.
Tebow is played by career tough-guy Jack Lambert. Lambert studied English Literature in college, and planned on becoming a professor, but caught on as an actor. He was on Gunsmoke seven times. In this episode, Tebow is a homicidal maniac killing people wherever he goes. Lambert had a knack for coming across as a very cruel man. He literally laughs as he kills people.
Jim Redigo is his first victim, a guy just minding his horses when Tebow shows up. Redigo was played by Buck Young, who appeared on Gunsmoke eight times. He was also gunned down by the psychotic brothers in "The Bobsy Twins" episode a year earlier (1960).
Later on, Shirley O'Hara gets a lot of screen time ranting about the competence of Marshal Dillon. She is the angry and upset wife of another victim. For some reason, Gunsmoke would go off on tangents, perhaps to fill up screen time, where nothing happened except that some character got to have a diatribe against Marshal Dillon, or some other rant about some other issue, and then the show would be over, with an ending that the audience just had to imagine on their own.
So Dillon spends extra time listening to Shirley O'Hara complaining about everything, and the surprise end for Tebow comes off-camera.
