The episode begins in a rather disturbing way as we see a beautiful lady receiving a pack of flowers from a stranger and is thrilled by the fact she could have fresh flowers at the door when her husband returns from a trip. But it becomes obvious that she will not live to see her husband as the stranger, who we will learn is Jason Gowdy, grabs the lady by the neck.
In the meantime, Lucas has been helping out a neighbor, Cora, with a broken fence because her husband is away in Santa Fe. Micah rides up and tells Cora and Lucas about a killing in a nearby town and the only clue they have is a pack of flower seeds. Micah tells Cora to be careful.
When Lucas arrives back at his house, Mark tells his Pa that a man was at the house by the name of Jason Gowdy and left him a pack of flower seeds. Lucas takes off to Cora's house as Mark tells him that he was asking about Cora and her absent husband. But when Lucas arrives at Cora's house is when the real excitement of the show begins.
Richard Anderson is brutal as the sweet talking salesman with a disorder for murder. Not only does his character get the upper hand on Lucas but he also goes after the young Mark. Even though the story had a creepy side, it still made for an entertaining watch. Give credit to Richard Anderson for providing realism to the written script. Another good show.
