While I agree with the other reviewer about most everything, I confess that I would have been disappointed if the film had had a shorter running time.

Granted, this film would never be on anyone's top 10 list.....but the older I get, the more I love these early talkies: the shootin' and drinkin' and budding romance. Oh sure, Bob Steele has had better actors than these in later films....but even with this one I found myself yearning for the good old movies of yesteryears.

I agree with a person who wrote a review of this film on Amazon: I just love the quick pace with which Bob and Marion struck a spark.

I've been watching some of his films on YouTube, and it's not exactly common to see Bob with a woman. I guess that's why I took to this one so easily. Sure, Marion isn't the end all and be all of actresses...but it just doesn't matter in this pic.

I love their budding romance. It really strikes a chord in me.

Oh yeah......and there were fisticuffs and shootouts!!! Almost forgot about that.

I thought this episode was really excellent. After reading other reviews, I wasn't sure I would enjoy it....but was pleasantly surprised.

It's not necessary for me to cover all of the essentials in this story. For me, the highlight was due to the fact that-finally-Nancy Malone and Paul Burke had a meaty relationship story. In watching these two through so many episodes, there were few times for Malone and Burke to shine together. I loved the ending of the story especially.
