Desperate Decision
Prismark1011 January 2024
Amos Cameron is an angry man. Some rustlers have stolen his prized horses and shot dead his foreman.

Amos along with his brother Roy want to chase down the rustlers. Sam Buckhart and his deputy, Walt Timmins (John Marley) want to wait.

Not good enough for Amos, who lets it be known that he knows the Governor of the state. He also does not like Buckhart, even going as far as telling him that he does not trust Buckhart.

The Camerons insists on going with the two men. Now Buckhart as the safety of the two brothers to consider when they are surrounded by Comancheros.

At each turn the Camerons refuse to reason to reason or bow to Burkhart's experience regarding the Comancheros.

This is a very good episode. Amos making it clear he knows better, insisting of having things done his way or he will tug on his political connections. Also he does not trust Buckhart because he is a Native Indian.

The only false note is at the end. Guys like Amos never apologise or learn their lesson. They would carry on with their dumb headed ways all the way to the Governor's office.

Warning: Spoilers
I had watched these episodes a year or so ago, and this one stuck out to me. I think the 'best' part (though it's not good at all) is when Roy Cameron gets really cocky and decides to do things his own way. His brother watches from a bluff as the Comancheros kill him brutally. His brother's screaming for help and Amos wants to go rescue him, but Sam grabs him and forces him to say. "There's nothing you can do," he declares. Then they watch as Roy is murdered right before their eyes.

That would be hard for me too. I understand why Amos was upset. At the time, he couldn't understand why Sam did such a thing, but by the end of the episode Amos has an understanding. It would have been suicide to ride in there and try to rescue Roy. The moment he galloped away from the group, he was a dead man...
