A WHN for The Code – I have borrowed a few of the characters from that episode.Summary: Joe Cartwright had gone ahead against his fathers wishes and had a showdown with gunslinger Dan Taggert after being goaded into a gunfight. Bets had been laid that Joe would or would not show, and that he could take the gunslinger. He does outdraw Taggert, shooting him in the arm. The majority of Virginia City had placed bets on Joe and when he is handed the money to pay the winners, he throws it on the floor in disgust. He then rides away, meeting his father and brother and they head back to the Ponderosa.
