This week on the podcast, we’re watching Season 1, Episode 30, “Feet of Clay.” When young Billy Allen’s mother dies, the Cartwrights take him in until his uncle can come for him. What they don’t realize is that Billy’s father, Vance Allen, has recently escaped from prison—and he’s coming for his son.
This heartfelt episode explores the bond between fathers and sons, the meaning of “feet of clay” through both Billy and Hoss’s perspectives, and gives Dan Blocker a chance to define the character of Hoss Cartwright in one of the best scripts of Bonanza’s first season.
