Adventures of a rancher (Chuck Connors) and his son in the Old West. In this episode, Lucas encounters Micah Torrence (Paul Fix), now a drunk but at one time considered one of the ablest lawmen in the territory. Micah admits he lost his nerve and it led him to a life of drink. Lucas offers him a job as a ranch hand and uses a tough-love approach to get him to sober up. The Sheltin brothers (Warren Oates, Robert Wilke) ride into town looking to get even with Micah, who jailed them 10 years before. Lucas is lured into a trap, but it's Micah who comes to his rescue. With James Drury, Abby Dalton, R.G. Armstrong, Bill Quinn. Written and directed by Sam Peckinpah
