Hoss has GOT to learn the fireman's carry! This is the second time that I know where he carried a woman "cradle-style." If he had hauled her over his shoulder, he could have carried both the woman and his rifle.

The concept of this episode was interesting but the ending seemed rushed and rather lackluster. The shoot out with Getty's friends seemed to be an afterthought. If they had wanted Getty and the money so bad it seems as if they would have been willing to fight even Joe and Pa for it. It is obvious that this episode was trying hard not to have anyone killed.

This was an ok episode but it certainly isn't the best. I agree with Ellie that Hoss should have carried the woman over his shoulder instead. That makes more sense.
