While searching for water the Wagon Train Robert Fuller and Frank McGrath come on outlaws who recently robbed a bank. Jack Lord, James Caan, Dee Pollock and some of their women folk Diane Brewster and Susan Seaforth Hayes.

They have a water problem too in addition to a posse chasing them. They shoot McGrath and leave him for dead.

Fuller tells them of a tale that there's water through dangerous Echo Pass which will take them to California. But it's a dangerous trek and Fuller playing for time works on all of them.

Great acted drama with Bob Fuller turning into one master psychologist. What happens with Lord is something to see.

Well written episode, Loaded with violence and grit, full of characters who could have ridden out of Sam Peckinpah's Ride the High Country.

Jack Lord is a real treat, you can see he was basically always Steve Mcgarrett on screen, and that is a good thing.

I have seen a few Wagon Train episodes so far where lack of water is the centre point, and wow, don't skip them when they pop up. Generally, the "finest" traits of our human character usually emerge.
