In this intense episode of "Gunsmoke," titled "Pussy Cats," the town of Dodge City becomes the stage for a deadly game of reputation as gunfighter Ken Creed sets his sights on Marshal Matt Dillon. Creed, known for his quick draw and ruthless efficiency, is determined to kill Matt to elevate his status as the fastest gun in the West.

Creed’s path of destruction begins with the cold-blooded murder of four men in Dodge, alongside his equally ruthless wife, Jack Farah. As the bodies pile up, Creed's true objective becomes clear—he wants to goad Matt Dillon into a showdown, but Matt, experienced and cautious, is unwilling to play into Creed’s hands. He knows that Creed’s speed is unmatched, and this is a fight he doesn’t want to engage in unless absolutely necessary.

Featuring standout performances by Parley Baer, William Conrad, and John Dehner, and expertly directed by Antony Ellis, "Pussy Cats" is a gripping tale of pride, reputation, and the thin line between law and lawlessness in the Old West.
