An interesting episode

I found this interesting. How the army tried to deal with payroll theft. How a group of thugs tried to outsmart the technique. Then, Festus, learning how to be an acting deputy marshal. The town's reaction. Good action sequence. Matt knocks a horse over...what more could you want?
