Storyline:
Swede Lundborg has struck it rich in Virginia City. He has two claims and one of them paid off. His fiance, Annie O'Toole, grabs up one of the deeds since she staked Swede. She says she, Swede, and her father, Kevin "Himself" O'Toole are all going to Nevada. "Himself" doesn't want to. The heathen air will kill him, he claims. And sure enough it does. When the Cartwrights meet Annie, her father is lying dead in the back of her wagon along side her stove. Hoss helps her bury her father on Swede's claim and she pays him with a meal. The scent of real home cooking brings every miner in the area. Written on IMDb.com
Reviews:
"As a long-time Bonanza fan, I always enjoy this episode. It was produced in the first season (1959) so all the main characters' personalities were not fully developed yet: Ben Cartwright and his sons Adam, Hoss, and Little Joe. All of them were in this episode, but it was handsome young Adam Cartwright (Pernell Roberts) who did a wonderful job of telling us the saga of Annie O'Toole. Love listening to his baritone voice. The episode had moments of light humor but had a lesson in American History showing an Irish and Swedish immigrant coming to America and seeking the promise land in the silver rush. The episode also gave a taste to the primitive law that was in the Nevada Territory during this time period. The situation of "supply and demand" was also taught in the ever-changing prices of Annie's ham and eggs." Written by ldavis8-1 on IMDb.com
"This is the first comical episode of Bonanza. It's not my favorite funny one indeed, but it's definitely a good relief from some of the heavier episodes. It concentrates on an Irish (?) woman who goes to Virginia City to search for treasure. Her father dies in route and she decides to open a kitchen on his plot while searching for silver.
Now, I get a little confused on how it all happened, but Adam becomes her partner (though he didn't really want to be), and Ben seems to be some sort of governor over the mine. Before all is said and done, there's quite a fight over one of the plots; and though O'Toole seems to be in the wrong, she thinks she's right.
Adam is the main Cartwright in this one, but all the characters are involved in this episode.
