Wagon Train	comment	An incredibly successful Western series about a group of pioneers heading out west after The American Civil War. The show lasted for eight seasons (1957â€“62 on NBC, 1962â€“65 on American Broadcasting Company), thanks in part to the broad range of storylines that its Walking the Earth format provided. These days, however, it's best known for its title being the first two of those five famous words that Gene Roddenberry used to pitch Star Trek: The Original Series.

Wagon Train / int_1da46897	comment	Lady Macbeth: In "The Captain Dan Brady Story," John Grey Cloud functions as a non-married variant. He and the title character are Heterosexual Life-Partners; Brady had killed John's father, the Sioux chief Red Cloud, and took care of him after that. John is constantly egging Brady on, encouraging him to commit underhanded deeds and stoking his ego. It's actually a malevolent plan of John's. He knows Brady wasn't the great hero everyone thinks he is, and is well past his prime. He wants Brady to make a fool of himself because he hates Brady (and all white people, really).

This includes the ashes of Ito's master, so he sets off in pursuit. When he catches up to them, things look bad, because he only has his katana and is facing four men with pistols. Then an arrow thuds into one thug's chest, and they are all surrounded by the Comanche that had been shadowing the wagon train the whole episode. The Comanche chief, Sharp Knife, is intrigued by the strange Japanese man, so he orders the remaining thugs disarmed and gives them all tomahawks. Ito quickly dispatches the men, but they had already destroyed the urn with the ashes, so he kills himself afterwards.

Murdock runs, forcing Charlie Wooster to take charge of the wagon train while Bill goes after Murdock. "A Man Called Horse" is a rather extreme example in that the title character is only in that episode. He shows up, tells Major Adams the story of his life (adapted from a short story by Dorothy M. Johnson, which was also made into a movie starring Richard Harris in 1970), which has nothing to do with the wagon train, and then leaves.

At episode's end he and his second wife happily ride on with the wagon train, and the fact that he had resolved to murder a woman and, as far as we can tell, would have done it if Flint hadn't interfered carries no consequences.

Wagon Train / int_c78d3e08	comment	Seppuku: In "The Sakae Ito Story", the title character is trying to get back to Japan to report the death of the prince to whom he was assigned as bodyguard. He tells Adams that he will commit suicide when he gets there in accordance with Japanese custom, much to Adams's bewilderment. When the urn carrying the prince's ashes is stolen and later destroyed, Ito, feeling that he has failed completely, goes ahead with the seppuku there in the American wilderness.

Neither of them knows the other because she has been in jail for killing her husband, his father, his whole life, and he was raised by his paternal grandfather (who he thinks is his father).

We never get a look at them, but it's heavily implied that they fall under this trope.

When they come under attack and their mission is threatened, Flint agrees to aid them.

Snark flies freely between them, but if you want to see Seth Adams drop the bellowing irascibility and display true anger, just threaten Wooster.

Wagon Train / int_da3043c5	comment	Fake Ultimate Hero: In "The Captain Dan Brady Story," the title character is a hero of the West and travels around with a "Wild West" show. His main claim to fame was defeating the Sioux chief Red Cloud in single combat. But it's ultimately revealed that he's not that capable; he gives bad, outdated advice to several of the wagon trainers, and even his great victory over Red Cloud wasn't as impressive as he makes it out to be. He's not a bad guy, really, he just got caught up in the fame and fortune and doesn't even remember himself how much truth there is in some of his stories.

Wagon Train / int_e38b0f45	comment	Snake Oil Salesman: The title character of "The Shadrack Bennington Story" sells "Dr. Bennington's Beneficent Balm," which supposedly cures the bends, dystrepsia, gout, and other ailments. Jethro Creech, the villain of "The Baylor Crowfoot Story", spends most of the episode talking about his personal philosophy of strength (which amounts to bullying everyone around him and calling anyone who won't stand up for himself a coward). Then he calls a big meeting of everyone in the train and expounds on his views, before taking out a bottle of his "special tonic." He says this is a key component in achieving the strength (and thus, success in life) he himself has, and can also cure "arthritis, rheumatism, headache, and consumption!" It seems that just about everyone who hadn't already dismissed his arguments realizes at this point that he's nothing more than a self-aggrandizing fraud.

Naomi clearly does not mourn John, is carrying on with the ranch foreman, and expects to get the bulk of the estate (with a bit set aside for Grace's dowry). When the will is discovered, it turns out Grace gets everything except for a stipend for Naomi — thirty silver dollars a month. (It seems John was well aware of his wife's infidelity.)
