Alma proposes forming a bank, and looks to familiar faces to run it. To test himself, Swearengen grants audience to a long line of supplicants; talks with Farnum and Miss Isringhausen prove most illuminating. The arrival of low-priced Chinese whores begins the next phase in Tolliver and Wolcott's arrangement. Humiliated by Bullock, an angry claim owner looks to "square the scales." An enchanted Merrick tours a new schoolteacher about the camp. Wolcott's inner demons test his alliance with Tolliver, and prompt Stubbs and Utter to covert action.
Nasty action in this episode, as three whores are murdered by an angry Mr W. Al's slowly getting on his feet, and the camp better watch out. I hope he puts the fired governant in her proper place soon. There is something with her that I don't like, and she seems to be out for Al's hide somehow. It's sure time for Al to wake up and start wreaking some havoc with the camp that seems to be slipping from his grasp. He needs to stamp his authority before it's too late.
