Lassiter a land developer marches into walnut grove taking ownership of walnut grove no respect he has his men inckuding himself beat almonzo up infront of his daughter whos just a toddler clearly no respect what kind of person does that i mean I'm sure we've had fights but infront of toddlers i mean like really seriously i was disappointed that a show that ran for 9 seasons had to end like this. The show is based on laura ingalls wilders books walnut grove was destroyed but in real life the town still exists and theres a museum called the laura ingalls wilder museum.
