German episode title: "Spiel auf Zeit", meaning "Play for Time".
Chris Beaumont didn't go on to a great acting career, but viewers may recognize him as the guy who usually played various teenagers on ABC sitcoms, including The Partridge Family, Room 222 and most famously, The Brady Bunch. His most notable role on that sitcom was as Jerry Rogers, the dishonest rival quarterback in Quarterback Sneak.
By this point in the series, with Jamie having become virtually part of the Cartwright fold, more and more episodes were focusing on teenagers. The scene where Jamie and his friends plot to break out of the shack is far different from earlier Bonanza episodes, when it seemed few (if any) teenagers lived in or near Virginia City.
