At first sight, farmer Charles Bickford doesn't easily seem like the gentle sort, but as the old cliche goes, looks can be deceiving. He's sent for a mail order bride and gets a visit from middle aged Barbara Stanwyck and her teenage son David Kent who seems to not want to attempt a relationship with him.
But during the visit (a trial to see if they'll get along), something bizarre happens. The two men bond, and all seems fine. But the sudden arrival of Stanwyck's missing husband, Gerald Mohr, shows up, complicating things. This western episode of "The Barbara Stanwyck Show" takes her back to her favorite genre, and in mixing it with genuine human emotions makes it something special. A surprise twist ending adds to the impact.
