Synopsis by Hal Erickson
In his first "solo" episode, Bart Maverick (Jack Kelly) agrees to protect Daisy Harris (Kathleen Crowley) during a hazardous journey through the Badlands. Even though Daisy explains that she'd been forced to kill her previous escort in self-defense, Bart gallantly remains by her side, even going so far as to pose as her husband--a deception which may end up sealing his doom! "The Jeweled Gun" was later reworked as "A Rage for Vengeance", in which Bart's brother Bret was the central character.
