Gaslighting on the lone prairie

While scouting for the herd, Sheb Woolley spots Dorothy Green alone on the prairie waiting to be picked up by her husband. Being the gentleman he is he offers a lift on his horse and she accepts the ride to her husband's ranch. But when she gets there she does not recognize Richard Webb as her husband and gets a bit hysterical. We learn that her husband was an astronomer and that Green spent some time in an asylum back east.

The movie Gaslight will come to mind when watching this story. Pete Nolan does not like the smell of the whole thing. There is a rather unsuccessful attempt to pass Wishbone off as an astronomer colleague. Still the truth is all sorted out in the end.

This episode will be one of the few times you'll see Buddy Ebsen as a bad guy so you should not miss it.
