Plot Overview
Lucas becomes involved in the matter of a young couple who are forced to get married by wagon train master Aaron Pelser and the members of his party. The young couple were on their way to Yuma to marry there but now married and homeless in North Fork, Lucas offers them a home until they can get on their feet. Several of the hands on the wagon train want to have a shivaree, a wild and drunken reverie where they keep the newlyweds up all night against their will. Lucas and Micah sense trouble and when wagon train member Chet Packard kidnaps the girl, their fears prove to be well-founded and they are forced to intervene and stop the out-of-control party.
