An attempt to assassinate President Grant is foiled at the last minute by West and Gordon. However, there seems to be more going on than a simple assassination, as the weapon used in the attempt was one stolen in recent raids on government and territorial armories. The President refuses to cancel a trip to Denver, leaving Jim and Artemus only 36 hours to uncover who is responsible and stop them before it's too late. Read full recap »
