Synopsis of Bonanza: The Deadly Ones
Will Kuluva guest-stars as General Diaz, a self-styled Mexican patriot who raids gold shipments in order to finance his campaign against the Emperor Maximillian. Taking the Cartwrights hostage, Juarez forces Ben to assist in the robbery of a gold wagon. At first hostile towards Diaz, Ben comes to respect and admire the General's sincerity and idealism-qualities lacking in his hired henchmen, one of whom, a mercenary sadist named Forsythe (Leo Gordon), has already shot Joe Cartwright in the back. Figuring prominently in the storyline is a young Diaz follower named Sims (Lee Farr) and his erstwhile sweetheart Molly (Jena Engstrom. Scripted by Denne Petitclerc from a story by N.B. Stone Jr., "The Deadly Ones" was originally telecast on December 2, 1962. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
