Synopsis

During Season 1 (1960–1961), Outlaws depicted United States Marshal Frank Caine and his deputies Will Foreman and Heck Martin, lawmen on the American frontier during the 1870s, 1880s, and 1890s.[1][2] Based in Guthrie[3] in the Oklahoma Territory, they pursue outlaws across the territory.[2] After the first nine episodes, Martin disappears from Caine′s team and Deputy U.S. Marshal Steve Corbie replaces him. Rather than tell the story from the lawmen′s point of view, each episode depicts events from the viewpoint of the outlaws they are trying to bring to justice, a darker perspective that explores how the outlaws think, what motivates them to break the law, how they plot their crimes, and how they feel about getting caught by lawmen.[2][3]

In Season 2 (1961–1962), Caine has become the territorial governor, and he, Martin, and Corbie are gone from the series.[2] Still enforcing the law in the Oklahoma Territory, Foreman has been promoted to marshal and now is based in Stillwater, pursuing outlaws with the assistance of his own deputy, Chalk Breeson.[2][3] Stories are told from the point of view of the lawmen and honest citizens rather than from that of the outlaws.[2][3] Episodes also portray events in Stillwater, where Slim is the town character who sometimes assists the marshals and Connie Masters works at the Wells Fargo office.[2][3]

Outlaws sought greater historical accuracy than most television Westerns, depicting real-life outlaws such as the Dalton Gang, Bill Doolin, and Sam Bass and events such as the Land Rush of 1889 in some of its episodes.[3]

Just after Thomas Healy, the head of a traveling Shakespearean acting troupe, deposits $20,000 in the bank at Edendale, all of his money is lost in a bank robbery. Healy decides to make up for his losses by having his troupe rob the bank in Stillwater while performing there, avoiding suspicion by making it look like the gang that robbed the Edendale bank had also robbed the bank in Stillwater. He also talks Slim and Breeson — who is attracted to Healy′s daughter — into appearing in his show, leaving only Foreman on duty and making it easier for the troupe to rob the bank. Healy abandons his plan when Foreman captures the Edendale gang and recovers the money it stole — but one member of Healy′s troupe decides to go through with the Stillwater robbery anyway. Guest stars: Myron McCormick, Ruta Lee, Myron Healey, George Kennedy, Phil Chambers, Robert B. Williams, and Bill Hickman.
