Jack Kelly stars as Bart Maverick in this episode which has Bart rubbing wrong
snobbish San Francisco millionaire Fredd Wayne who has two Barbary Coast
associates I. Stanford Jolley and Terrence DeMarney shanghai Bart for a long
sea voyage round the horn to New Orleans.
At the same time Wayne and his two henchmen are planning a really big con game involving discovery of a diamond field in America. One natural resource that the USA was never blessed with.
When Bart makes it New Orleans he teams up with exiled French nobility Lily Valenty and Jacqueline Beer. He wants to get back at Wayne and these two will guarantee him entry into San Francisco society.
Being a Maverick he smells something fishy in the diamond find, especially after he recognizes DeMarney and Jolley as the two who helped him on board the New Orleans bound ship.
The episode is based on a real occurence in San Francisco in its adolescent American years. Of course no one named Maverick was really involved.
Best in the episode was amiable, laughing captain of the ship Sig Ruman. He actually sympathizes with Jack Kelly's plight and gives what turns out sage advice.
Maverick fans then and now enjoy this one.
