This is an average episode.There's nothing really
spectacular.
McCord has a dream about the first confederate soldier he killed.After awakening,
he goes into a town where he accidently happens
onto the father and son of that soldier.After
a night where he finds that indeed it is the
family of that soldier,he admits it to them.
The two are in a state of revenge,and the son
attempts to kill McCord.McCord hands him the
broken sword,filed into a knife,that he killed
the soldier with and tells the son to kill him.
He can't.But the father realizes that he expected
too much of his son,and forgives McCord.
Not a great deal of action in this episode.moreless
