Awful letdown

This one was definitely not one of the better Rawhide episodes ever done. The guest star is Robert Blake who plays someone who was known as a winter soldier. One might enlist in the US Cavalry to spend the rough western winters in a nice warm army barracks with three hots and a cot and then desert with the first coming of spring. That's what Blake has done and he has a most determined officer in Liam Sullivan looking to bring him back.

There are hints that Blake is a good deal more than a slacker and it was one awful letdown when he proves different. It was not what I was expecting and I can't recommend this story for Rawhide's viewers.

Goofs
Several soldiers, along with Favor, Hey Soos, and Quince, ride all night to save Rowdy and the Kurtzes from an Indian attack. When they catch up to the party just in time to thwart the attack, all of them pursue the Indians. None of them stop to check whether Rowdy and the Kurtzes are all right. Of course, had they done so, the deserter Johnson wouldn't have had time for a lengthy goodbye - and a clean getaway.

Quotes
Hap Johnson: Well, that settles it, Tooky boy. I'll see you in Tahiti.
Tooky: You really leaving, Hap?
Hap Johnson: You betcha I am. You can have my share of Comanche and my compliments too.
