A Beautiful Ending
garysteinweg1 March 2022
If/when this episode shows again, do your best to see it. It's a good story, not necessarily great, but it's the wrap-up ending that is VERY heart-warming. The things that are said, and the things that are done in the last 10 minutes must be seen. It's the only Paladin episode that I've saved on my DVR.

Regards, Gary in Sandy Eggo.

Really.
pensman25 January 2019
A Mexican infant is given up by his mother as she wants a better life for her son. Now as the boy is a teenager, his Mexican mother wants him back. Nita Garcia agrees to Paladin's plan: he will bring the boy back to her but the boy will choose where he wants to live. Jose decides he will return to the Avery's. But Manuel Garcia, the boys father, a bandit, objects. You can figure out what happens. What makes no sense is Jose speaks no Spanish. He has spent all of his life with his adoptive parents and yet his English is heavily accented by a Spanish accent. The story has a strong moral to it but what was the director thinking? I suspect his prejudice comes through in believing a Mexican infant surrounded by American English speakers would somehow grow up to have an accent regardless of upbringing.
