In the territory on West, there's just one way to handle the killers and the spoilers, and that's where the U.S. Marshal and the smell of gun smoke. Starring William Conrad, the story of the violence that moved West with young America, and the story of a man who moved with it.
I'm that man, Matt Dillon, United States Marshal, the first man they looked for and the last they want to meet. It's a chance a job that it makes a man watchful. At a little lonely.
Shoot, Matt. Oh, something moving near the barn.
I did clear, Rafe. I think you're beginning to see things. You were out here shooting about this time yesterday. Come on in and have yourself. I saw something. I tell you, I'm going down there.
Not Rafe. Your eyes are playing tricks on you in the twilight. You didn't find anything last night, did you? I didn't get a good look. You're all that made back here like the engines was after you.
A woman likes her supper at once she sets it on the table. Come on, Rach, you're probably getting cold. Oh. But one of these times I'm going to get a good shot at him. Put that gun down and pull up to the table.
You really think you could make somebody out? Somebody was there, all right. I got me a good idea who it was. You got me a good idea. It's that worthless dude kid we had around here.
Tom? You mean Tom? Not sure, do. Now you wouldn't want to go and shoot him, would you? I'll shoot him sure if I find him on my land. He caught nothing but trouble. Letting the hogs loose, tipping the land in the loft.
