While Micah is away, Dan Willard takes on the role of temporary marshal, but his strict enforcement of the law irks a group of Texas cowhands who have come to North Fork for some leisure. Dan's father confides in Lucas, expressing concern that Dan is trying to assert his manhood after being dismissed from West Point due to his poor vision.
