#1 .. recovered two one-barrel guns .. :)

Now they're beating up the toll collectors! The best long term job is being a cohort. They always make it to the next episode.

#2 my only concern for the RAB is their apparent poor marksmanship. The cohorts always manage to flee successfully. Apparently RAB can't shoot straight over more than a 2' distance

#3 But Frank, do they need to? compare the accomplices to the bit players in any number of spagetti westerns (or red shirted Star Trek crewmwmbers): either they play no part in the outcome, or get waxed. In this case they allow the RAB to 'retaliate' and in the process, the Crook d'dour 'receives' any number of bullets.
And the accomplices probably work for less than union scale.

#4 LOL good point on the red-shirted ST members...what was their usual lifespan after touching down on a dangerous planet? One commercial break? at best?
