I really enjoyed the play between the horses and the vehicles.  It's nice that the mayor is on board and backing the Rancher.  Eventually I think the DA will be.  Surprised to see a woman ADA in 1960

Well i found it average

arksongbird80

I must say that I found this episode so much better than pilot , I liked how they solved the crime and arrested the bad guys and how they managed to kill the mole by diversion

So much for trying impress the bosses but he was hot head but seem like one big liability for the mob. I like how Lamb arrested him but him wanting Lamb dead was amusing consider he got rejected by the boss man and it seem  Savino argument about keep the sheriff around does make good business decision

Chasing the plane with the horse was an amusing start and taking down the biker was great

I thought the guys that walked out when given the chance were signing their own death warrants and what Ralph said when he returned the Sheriff's chips to Johnny was great, running up the back of the police car so he could get arrested was a little over the top

codebreaker

Johnny was a bit of a hot-head and he got what he deserved after what he did in the private room, how Tommy actually died was sad considering it was his friends medication that probably caused the heart attack

bala

Well with the title like that i had feeling she was related to rich family but finding out her brother killed her was a surprise and you really can't keep expansion a secret but smart thinking purchase other casino for expansion .

Well i had feeling kidnapping wasn't related to the mob and meeting Savino wife was interesting but i was rather disappointed they didn't cast a better actress to play her because she really look like fish out of water.

The hit and run of the African American maid because of her connection to one of the town's most wealthy businessmen was tragic
