This episode turned out to be a nice mystery as we get a situation that viewers must keep watching to find out the bizarre goings-on at the small Tibb's shack outside of town.
It all begins when Doc pays a visit to an old shack that is occupied by Flory Tibbs (Cloris Leachman). Doc is just making a friendly visit about there being a doctor around when he hears someone in the shack calling for him. Flory's husband is in bed with a wound to the leg that he said came from a accident while chopping wood. But Doc knows something is strange about this place. Flory is acting really queer and her husband has a gun under the covers. And when Doc sees the wound he knows that the wound did not come from an accident.
Matt and Chester ride out to the shack and tell Flory that they are just travelers looking for a place to settle. After she tells them that her husband is not at home they hear him calling from inside. When Matt goes and talks to the man he wants them to take him out of the shack and into Dodge. But when Matt tells him that he is a US Marshal all of the sudden the man changes his mind and wants to stay at the shack with Flory. Only later we will learn that everything being told at the shack is not all the truth. And the outcome will come as a twist in this bizarre plot.
A well acted and interesting story that was entertaining to the very end. Leachman was excellent in playing the woman that projected a scornful deposition as she tried her best to get all visitors to leave. Not a lot of action in this episode but one that was full of suspense the entire time. Good watch.
