The Rifleman-S1 E20 The Deadeye Kid

Duration 25m

A smart-alec young boy from Brooklyn comes west to seek his fortune. He makes the acquaintance of Mark McCain and is invited to visit the McCain ranch. Proceeding on his trip a few days later, he witnesses a cold-blooded killing, panics, and returns to the McCains for help. Mark is home alone, and sympathizing with the boy, offers to help him hide. In the meantime, Lucas has joined a posse looking for the boy, who has been accused of the killing. As they track the young boy, it becomes clear to Lucas that the young Easterner couldn't possibly manage in the rough country alone, and Mark must be helping him hide from the law. Lucas finally catches up with Mark, but the boy refuses to reveal the hiding place of his friend until Lucas persuades him that the situation can only be settled, if the boy is willing to face up to the charges and clear himself.
