In this episode, William Muldoon, Clarence Whistler, and Donald Dinnie are in a feud. Worked or shoot? There is evidence of both. Whistler gets injured yet again and Dinnie goes to jail for putting on a worked pro wrestling match.

Meanwhile, an old name from the past creeps back into the story as Col. James H. McLaughlin is plotting his return.
