'Tension' episode #45
When it first shows Mark on the cattle drive, he is pulling a horse. Why?
So that means there are four horses all together...
Lucas: 1 horse
Mark: 2 horses
Sid: 1 horse
Then Clemmie - 1 horse
When they leave, there's:
Mark: 1 horse
Lucas: 2 horses
What happened to the other 2 horses? And why did Mark have that other horse in the first place???
Thanks Michelle!

The horse that Mark is leading in the beginning of the episode is the pack horse. You can see the supplies, etc. on its back.
When they leave the camp Mark is on Blueboy, Lucas is on Razor and Sid's body is tied to a horse that is saddled---I think we should assume it is Sid's horse.
So the pack horse and Clemmie's horse are both missing. Even it they let Clemmie's horse go to find its own way home, what happen to the pack horse? Thanks PJH!

When Clemmie unfolds the wanted poster, it's creased, but when the camera moves in on on the wanted poster it's perfect, no creases. Thanks Rob!
Sid Halpern stated that he had been an outlaw before he married his wife and had their son. The deed he had done happened around the time Margaret died, which was about six years ago (seven according to Lucas) - which would have made Mark 13 instead of 11/12 in this episode if they were sticking to the six-year old thing - that blooper's already been established.
However, Toby looks to be around seven years old or so...so, if this robbery had taken place seven years before, Toby and his mom would have had to have been around when the train was robbed, right? so either Sid lied about meeting his wife after the robbery, or the writers didn't figure the math right...Of course, I'm sure back in the 50's, the viewers never gave it a second thought...Thanks Michelle!
