Hondo

Season 1 Episode 11: Hondo And The Sudden Town

Ex-Senator Knight and his aide Martin Blaine arrive in the territory and re-open an abandoned silver mine. Soon a ghost town near the mine is populated and renamed Silver Knight. The Senator and Blaine begin selling land to others who want to share in the silver. A man named Kelso shows up and demands money from Blaine for work he has done. Blaine pays him and then arranges for his murder. Kelso is shot and scalped to blame it on the Apaches, who are upset about white men coming onto their land. The mine goes into operation but Hondo and Buffalo's friend Willie tells them there isn't much silver being mined. It is soon announced that the first shipment of silver, worth $75,000, is being shipped out. Hondo soon figures out that Senator Knight and Blaine are actually shipping in silver from Mexico, which can be bought for a cheaper price, and passing it off as mined in the U.S. so they can make a huge profit on the difference in price.
