- Bart wagers to save the lives of his fellow stagecoach travelers--who have shown their dislike for gamblers--when the coach is held up and Bart makes an unusual bet with the bandits. Now, the only question is: Does Bart hold the winning hand?—Anonymous
- These Maverick episodes certainly got worse as the series neared its end. This one is really one of the worst and most boring of the series that I have seen. Typical no action humdrum plot of Bart (Jack Kelly) and others on stagecoach being captured by Mexican outlaws and held for ransom. There is the typical attempt to save Bart by a doctor, Dr. Robespierre Jones (Richard Hale) who is a preacher, not a medical doctor who tries to save Bart's inner spirit since he knows it is bad. The subplot involves one of the captives (Nancy Hsueh) being romanced by one of the captors. She is already promised to another man of her ethnic group (arranged marriage) whom she has not seen since she was a child. She is 20 something in this show. This subplot ends with predictable results. (There are twists but they are not worth typing up or watching.) Results of the kidnapping and the romance are predictable by a six year old. Nothing memorable about this one. Do not waste your 47-48 minutes on this dog.
