We won't be seeing much of Jonathon or Andy after this episode. I think we get a few glimpses of Jonathan, but this is Andy's last episode if I'm not mistaken.
Though the fire happened several months before, the Garvey family finally realized they couldn't stay in Walnut Grove without dear, sweet Alice. They moved to Sleepy Eye where Jonathan started his own freight business. But right off the bat, he learns a disadvantage of living in a town - there is a gang of teenagers who are stealing things. They cause trouble in the street and apparently nobody can do anything about it - not even the Sheriff!
Jonathan agrees to be deputy so he can put a stop to his stuff being stolen. He knows who the thief is, and when he has him arrested the guy sweet talks everyone into believing he'll never do it again. But after he beats Andy up, Jonathan is out for revenge. Unfortunately, the boy is still out on the streets when he decides to rob the bank. The results are not good...
Lessons about guns are learned in this episode at a high cost. We say goodbye to Jonathan who, by the way, is getting ready to start his own series with the help of Michael Landon as producer...
