Jeanette Nolan guest stars as the imperious and extremely bossy mother of Fort Courage commander Wilton Parmenter (Ken Berry). No sooner does she arrive at the fort than Mrs. Parmenter is complaining about the slackness of the troops and telling Wilton how best to run things. Naturally, Mrs. P.'s presence threatens the crooked business activities of O'Rourke (Forrest Tucker) and Agarn (Larry Storch), so much so that they aren't too keen about organizing a rescue party when the old lady ventures into Indian territory (pity the poor Indians!) ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
