In "The Chief's Blunder," Doc Williams' farewell from the frontier town sparks a heartfelt gesture: the townspeople craft a "Wanted" poster to honor him, hoping it’ll convince him to stay. But when a cunning stage driver steals the poster and twists it into a fake bounty, he tricks the Chief Marshal into paying a reward—only to vanish, leaving Rocky on the trail of a conman disguised as an Indian.
