Entering the office, Matt is surprised to find his easy going deputy packing a shotgun. Is he going hunting for birds in the bush? Chester reminds Matt of the bad hombres from his old stomping grounds in Texas, is there someone in town who has Chester worried?
Asa Ledbedder has come to Dodge, and gunshots interrupt Matt’s relaxing conversation with Miss Kitty. Whether the danger is real or not, Chester’s paranoia has him jumpy. If Asa is up to no good, Matt’s confrontation doesn’t get the cool headed, South Texas man stirred up.
To tame the tension, and when Doc encounters Matt in the wee hours in the morning, we learn that Chester has been locked in a cell for his own protection. The situation has the benefit of putting Matt in Chester’s shoes. When Asa mistakes the sleeping Matt for his deputy, gunshots ring out the truth behind the skulking around town lately.
