Storyline:
"Gullible Hoss meets a flamboyant, sword-brandishing drunk claiming to be none other than the notorious pirate Jean LaFitte. Believing LaFitte is who he says he is and remembering that history considered him a patriot for his aid at the Battle of New Orleans, Hoss chooses to treat LaFitte like a hero and invites him to the Ponderosa. While skeptical Ben contacts old friends in New Orleans to try to verify his identity, LaFitte is accused of murder and Hoss must try to find not only the real killer but the answer to the question: who is Jean LaFitte?" Written by shepherd1138 on IMDb.com
Reviews:
"Jean Lafitte is one of those characters in history who is still shrouded in legend. After his helping Andrew Jackson win the battle of New Orleans he went back to the pirate trade, relocating to Galveston Island and then sailed off, his fate unknown but subject to speculation. It's on that speculation that this Bonanza episode revolves.
The Gentleman From New Orleans is John Dehner who arrives at Virginia City claiming to be the one and only Jean Lafitte. He's got the manner to carry it off and he makes a believer out of Dan Blocker. But later on the 70 something old pirate if that's who he is gets suspected of the murder of a rancher who was robbed of money that Lorne Greene paid him for cattle. When you call yourself Jean Lafitte you go to the top of anyone's suspect list.
This episode turns on the charm of John Dehner as the old pirate and the nice chemistry he establishes with the trusting Dan Blocker. And your speculation is as good as anyone's about the fate of Jean Lafitte." Written by bkoganbing on IMDb.com

He was a great character actor. He was in a lot of shows in the 60s.

Thank you Gringo. Now instead of mak'n sure we were done with milking the cows (Brown Swiss), feeding the pigs, locking up the chickens for the night in time to watch Bonanza on Sunday night, i can watch Bonanza every night and it still makes me laugh. "May God keep us safe. Amen."

[@winonamassingill7895]

Instead of locking up the chickens for the night, don’t you mean penning up the biddies? 🐥 🐓 🐣

[@multirichardb]

Bonanza and the irony of the actor's fantasies, this was hilarious, and big ol Hoss's swagger at the real diamond and adios, was perfect.

[@KingBubbaRay]

This old buzzard is/was my favorite character ever to guest star on Bonanza. Wish they had brought him back often.

[@suev3339]

This old buzzard is John Dehner who was great on radio and film. Long career in acting.

[@joeowens6180]

Though I do love him completely, I do keep wondering about the extend of Hoss' gullibility. Thank goodness, after much humiliation, his "living by his heart" (Ben) is fully vindicated! Splendid job by veteran actor John Dehner! Thanks again Grjngo!

[@VISIONARY7033]

Nice to see John in a comedic role. He was always stern and serious and scampish.Great actor

[@charlesbromberick4247]

"I´m never certain myself." You gotta love the ending.

[@brianwest2775]

EXCELLENT! A superb episode. I'd like to have seen a scene with Little Joe quizzing him about the war. Ben could say "Well, he could have read all the same books." and the Gentleman could exclaim "The best parts are not in the history books!" and tell a tale about something or someone. Or, better, he could tell a story that differs from the history books and is embarrassing to a leading figure, Joe thinks that he has exposed him, but the Gentleman exclaims "Of course the history books don't tell it the way it really happened. Nobody wants to be remembered for xyz." The writers and actors did a great job with this episode.

John Dehner, also an assistant illustrater at Disney. Had language skills , so public relations army officer in WW2. He was in over 260 episodes of film, or tv. & starred in 9 series. Played radio version of Gunsmoke and Palladin.. Birn 1915 to died 1992....just three years after his 1940 to 1989 career.

[@carolcarter3712]

Awww sooo unhappy two episodes without Adam oh my not a good day's 💕

[@user-pd7il3xz5j]

I love Bonanza, but I love them even more when Adam isn't away in San Francisco...on another trip for his Pa.

[@yougetagoldstar]

As a guy, I like Adam as a character; I like his levelheadedness and he's just cool. I'm sure his qualities translate differently to a female so I can understand why you said that.

[@thekrrib]

I like Adam too but I guess he was almost leaving the show by now. He was pretty disgruntled and difficult to work with as time went on so maybe he was written out more often to appease both sides. He left in series 6 so by this episode we are getting pretty close.

[@user-pd7il3xz5j]

Can you imagine how many times Adam would have rolled his eyes at Hoss' gullibility. I would have loved to see that.

Jean LaFitte. is the subject that "Pirates of he Caribbean" at Disney is based on. ☠

[@edoedo8686]

As a boy I loved all the work of the brilliant John Dehner. He was great in this episode, made me ignore the bad French accent. This episode made me think of Edgar Allen Poe's C. Auguste Dupin. Jean Lafitte (Laffite) is basically my philosophy of pleasure at age 66. Why not, life is short.. This is the first Bonanza episode where I think the comedy worked--because of John Dehner.

[@Starlababy]

I guess he really was John LaFeet.

[@brianwest2775]

Yes. In this episode Ben said "But he died a long time ago." How can you really be sure who was buried at sea? If he was as portrayed in this episode, he certainly could have faked his death to get out of some debt. Born in 1780, so he should be over 80 years old in this episode.
