Regular series characters appearing in this episode: Trampas and Randy

Synopsis:
Trampas' infatuation with the daughter of a peaceful, religious
man interferes with his thinking when he encourages the rest of the townsmen
to take up arms against a tyranical landlord (Savalas) who is using force
to "disposess" them of their property. Although the people are ultimately
grateful for his involvement, Trampas has reason to regret it when the girl
is killed after shooting the landlord's son with the gun the cowboy had
given to her. (bj)
