What the salesman saw
mitchrmp19 May 2014
The LR has a guarantee from Barnaby Boggs, the salesman, that he would ride to Mexican Bow to ID an outlaw named Red Kruger. But when his henchmen threaten him, he runs for the hills. He doesn't get very far before LR and Tonto sees him and makes him go back. Problems everywhere as the henchmen give Boggs all sort of trouble.
The Lone Ranger proves to be the wisest in his time, knowing that Red is near and figuring out who it is when nobody else could. It's your typical LR Western!
Not one of my favorite episodes. There is a blunder in this episode. When LR checks Boggs, his body moves when LR wonders if he's dead or alive. Why did he lift him into sitting position hen check his eyeballs? Weird!
