| Waiting to blow up the professor: Dr. Loveless awaits with his pea-shooter and can say "Peter Piper picked a peck..." with the pea-sized explosive in his mouth. | "Hey, don't point that thing at me boss!" Well, he really doesn't talk, but we might guess that's what Voltaire (the giant actor Richard Kiel) was probably thinking. | Jim West is posing as a traitor and sitting with Greta, who is a traitor. West must first listen to Loveless and Antoinette sing a duet before gaining information. | Though West seems too preoccupied to enjoy the song, Voltaire seems to enjoy their singing just fine, --as evidenced by his snacks and toe tapping. |

| Thanks to Miss Piecemeal, West's cover is blown and is taken captive in a stagecoach. Fortunately it was rigged by Artemus Gordon allowing West to... | ...with a flip of a lever, this henchman gets the clamp that comes out of the wall. | ...And with another console gadget, West ejects the stagecoach driver out of the seat... | (ouch) and the third captor is ejected through the coach's sunroof. However, it's all for naught as Voltaire is there to prevent West from escaping. |

| West gets the trapped floor treatment upon being returned to Dr. Loveless | Only West's charm toward Greta could get him out of this mess. To the doctor's demise, Greta sets him free, and begins a moral inventory of her life. Surely these are the things that inspire ballads. | Dr. Loveless isn't all bad. Earlier he rescued a fly when it fell in his soup, and has a pet snake named Marsha. However, he will blow-up So. California if the governor doesn't hand the region over to him. | As well, this 1870's mad doctor shows West his blueprint of an airplane, as well as his invention of penicillin and the precursor to radio airwaves. |

| West climbs to stop the clock in the church bell tower so to prevent the explosives from going off. | Dr. Loveless is none too happy about this and calls West a meddler. Then he really gives West a piece of his mind: "Darn you! Darn you!!" | After saving Southern California, Artemus and Jim are reunited back on the train. Artie is delighted that a smorgasbord is prepared. | But first, West offers his gratitude to Greta (Leslie Parrish) for turning her life around, and for doing a great job on supper. |
