Comedy ep to a degree
12 August 2019
Warning: Spoilers
This ep has a couple of holes or a few. Maverick In fact he did not have to get involved in owning the camel at all. The previous owner had nothing in writing from him. Only Garner's skillful acting in this scene keeps it from being obviously idiotic.

Another hole. Why after the saloon owner shot Maverick and then after the girl was shot in the gunfight between the two men did the Sheriff not arrest both saloon owner and Maverick? Last hole. What was the girl's emotional reaction to realizing her saloon owner lover shot her? Never saw it. Why?

Also. What about that hired gun. The one the saloon owner paid to pretend to have a vendetta against Maverick. Why did he completely drop out of the story?

PS The fact that the camel is not an Arabian is not a goof or hole. It was a lying conman who swindled Maverick into getting the camel. The trickster was the one who claimed the camel had Been owned by the US Army you figure the rest out.
