      Heath Barkley: [Audra storms into the house] Wonder what's wrong with her?

      Nick Barkley: I don't know. Hey, Audra? What's wrong with you?

      Audra Barkley: You'll find out soon enough!

      Heath Barkley: What will we find out soon enough?

      Audra Barkley: I can't find the keys to the gun cabinet. Have you seen them?

      Nick Barkley: They're right here in my pocket.

      Audra Barkley: May I have them, please?

      Nick Barkley: Yeah.

      [Hands over the keys]

      Audra Barkley: Thank you.

      Nick Barkley: Heath, I swear if I didn't know better, I'd say that it seems, like maybe, Audra's planning to shoot somebody.

      Heath Barkley: Yeah. Who you s'pose she's going to shoot?

      Nick Barkley: No idea.

      Heath Barkley: Think it's anybody we know?

      Nick Barkley: I think we'd better find out.

    Average episode - but fun nevertheless

    This little offering has the likes of Claude Akins and Eleanor Audley (as his Irish mama) staking claim to land they believe is rightfully theirs - which Audra insists is Barkley territory.

    The acting here is cute and corny: Noreen Cochran does a smooth Hibernian lilt, however.

    The scene when Claude barges inside the Barkley mansion drunk is a delight. Reason is because Stanwyck magically transforms herself into one of her 1940's movie star personalities and she's actually very funny.

    Not a great episode - but like most of them - definitely worth a look-see Enjoy!
