Synopsis by Hal Erickson
In the conclusion of a two-part story, ruthless cattle baron Aaron Shields (Gary Merrill) arranges for Jason (Chuck Connors) to be thrown in jail for coming to the aid of a band of gypsies. When he discovers that his own daughter Robin (Ahna Capri) has given the gypsies the bail money for Jason's release, the outraged Shields orders his henchman to wipe out the entire tribe--with an especially grisly fate reserved for gypsy leader Kolyan (Nico Minardos). Can it be that we are witnessing a sagebrush version of Romeo and Juliet...or is it Il Trovatore?
