This episode is a a thinly reworked copy an episode of The Virginian called Run Away Home from 1963 staring Jeanine Riley and James Drury. Some of the dialogue is a direct duplicate. Both episodes have the same writers Howard Browne (teleplay) and Gene Roddenberry (story). Even the names of the secondary characters (the older couple) are only slightly changed John and Minerva Lewis to John and Minerva Lambert.
Jeanine and James do it better. Both have more charm and better chemistry than Ben Murphy and Heather Menzies.
