Reviews:
"This Bonanza story has yong Ben Cooper who was breaking horses for he Ponderosa being thrown and sustaning spinal paralysis. The Cartwrights take him in until he can recover. A nurse fom Dr.Addison Richard goes akong to help with the exercise treatment.
The main part of the story is the relationship between nurse Sue Randall abd Cooper. Both are wounded in their different ways. There's a secondaryy plot involving neighbor R.G. rmsterong and Randall who was once involved with one of his sons now deceased. Armstrong figures she's part of the family even though Randall and his kid were never married. Amstrong also doesn't like the Cartwrights in any event on general principles.
Cooper and Randall have some good scenes together as the romance develops. Iy's an episode with a well told tale." Written by bkoganbing on IMDb.com
"The Cartwrights have hired a young man, Johnny Lightly, to break in a few horses. But while doing his job, Johnny is thrown and loses all feeling in the lower part of his body. With Johnny paralyzed, he will reside with the Cartwrights while he undergoes therapy in order to regain the use of his legs.
The doctor sends over a nurse, Ann Davis (Sue Randall), that has been obviously emotionally hurt by a man. Ann is a bitter young woman that cares for no one else but herself and will never again open up to a man. But while helping Johnny to regain feeling, Ann feels herself being draw toward the good-looking horse breaker and is set to leave Virginia City before she gets hurt again.
There is also a rather silly sub-plot, that involves a rancher, Nathan Clay, that blames Ben Cartwright for killing his son even though he was killed in another town while robbing a bank. And with the Cartwright boys on a cattle drive, Nathan is finally going to get his revenge on Ben.
The story concerning the paralyzed horse breaker was actually very interesting. The relationship between him and the bitter nurse played well. The part of the story that involved getting revenge on Ben Cartwright ended in a silly manner that was just not believable. But overall this episode held the viewers interest throughout the show. Good watch." Written by kfo9494 on IMDb.com
