The Wagon train is heading west toward California, and the advance scout, Flint McCullough (Robert Horton) rides into the Rockies ahead to scout out the way ahead. He runs into an English party of wanna-be safari hunters, led by Lord Bruce Saybrook (Brian Aherne), who is living a tedium of existence amid high society in London. Thus, for a new adventure he has organized this hunt through the rugged outdoors of North America to hunt big game. But a tribe of Shoshone Indians takes exception to their adventure, so stalks them to rid their land of these game thieving intruders. Saybrook is accompanied by his brother Tommy (Liam Sullivan), a ne'er do well society party going roustabout, his wife (played beautifully by Antoinette Bower), and his wife's lover, Bevan Alston (Richard Ney), who turns out to be a yellow bellied coward of an English artist. Lord Saybrook is determined to play safari king, but McCullough takes charge of them with his usual rugged leadership needed in this dangerous situation, as he finally convinces Lord Saybrook that the Indians mean business. in the end, the only one in the Safari worth his salt IS Lord Saybrook who, along with McCullough and his experience in fighting the Indians, brings this episode neatly to a close. The psychological differences in the varying perspectives of the players carries the dialogue and tone of the episode, and it turns out to be an interesting character study. Eventually many lessons are necessarily learned and the English marriage as well as the lives of the players are saved.
