    Reviews:
    "This show started out a little slow for me, it didn't seem too interesting. But, for me, it definitely got better as it went along.
    A notorious family of outlaws, father, Luke Barnes (Ford Rainey) and four sons. Two of the sons are already dead leaving two sons, twins, one, Jud (formerly Homer) who has changed his name, is married to Amelia (Nancy Rennick), who has no idea of his past, and now is a "top hand" for the Cartwrights and one, Rube, who has no guilt when stealing or killing. Both of the sons are played by Ron Hayes. The father seems to love both of them, but with a preference for Rube, most likely because Rube has stayed with him. They have been searching for Homer/Jud and have finally found him.
    Rube kills Sol Breckenridge (Joseph Breen) while stealing a horse from his corral, so there is a posse looking for him. Jud tracks them down and confronts them, Rube takes Jud's place in order to steal some more so father and son have some money to live on while Jud is held at gunpoint by his father. Rube wouldn't cooperate with the Deputy Clem Foster (Bing Russell) so is being held in jail while Ben, still thinking he is Jud, talks the deputy into releasing him so he can help Little Joe go pick up an expensive horse. At one point Ben is also being held at gunpoint and tells the father that all a man has for his reputation is the children he leaves behind.
    SPOILER: In the end, Luke, the father, has to choose between his sons. he shoots Rube just before Rube is going to shoot Jud. Then he rhetorically asks, "Why would I kill Rube". Ben answers him and says because you want to be remembered well." Written by talonjensen on IMDb.com
    "Ron Hayes plays a pair of twin brothers in this Bonanza story. One has moved out west from Kansas and is a line rider for the Ponderosa. The other is a wanted outlaw and rides with his father Ford Rainey.
    Bad Hayes steals a horse and shoots the rancher who owned it. The other one happens to run across Rainey who takes him back to their cap and he hears how desperate they are, more so since they are now wanted for murder.
    The two twins are polar opposites. The one married to Nancy Rennick is trying so hard to go straight. The other is just a mean evil man.
    This episode would rate higher but for a rather unrealistic climax." Written by bkoganbing on IMDb.com

      Yeah I feel ya. Every time I watch Bonanza I always think of Battle Star Galactica. Lorne was as great as Adama as he was as Ben Cartwright. Basically the same kind of role in that Sci fi. In charge of the Galactica as Ben was the Ponderosa. Father of two adult children as Ben was his three grown sons. Same Patriarchal figure of that mighty star Ship as Ben was in his home. Same Ben Adama Cartwright:)

It was definitely hard to tell which was which and both had similar mannerism so I could see it being tricky. I met another set of identical twins looked the same the only difference was one child had one crooked tooth but if you didn’t notice the detail you couldn’t tell.
