I won't rehash this episode as others have done a fine job. Suffice it to say that this just might be one of the most memorable Gunsmoke episodes of the 20 year run. I've seen it a number of times and it always gets a laugh out of me. Jack is perfect in his role as 'adoring husband' of a pregnant homesteading wife. Chester also is in perfect character; I love his homespun comparisons. Matt is obviously out of his bailiwick.as farmhand and laborer, although his spotless reputation remains intact. Matt is one of my childhood heroes.
It's a must see episode that only works with the well-developed characters of Matt and Chester mixing it up with Wiley Jack Elam.
LOVE IT!
