I'am glad they stood up to them and got to keep theire land.That doesn't seem right that they could do that.

When the RR Workers attacked the farm they were wearing masks that look like the kind the KKK wore. I saw a picture of people wearing KKK masks in a history book at school. I found that kinda confusing. The way I understand it the builders were wearing it to just scare the farmers and to hide their identity. The other explanation is that they were part of the KKK and just wore the masks to hide their identity. So my question is did they wear KKK Sack masks to hide their identity or just because since they are part of the KKK its easier to wear a mask they already own then needing to buy/make a new one which if bought could be traced back to them. I think I'm over thinking this but please tell me why and how they got the KKK Sack masks. (Is this post confusing?)

I think this is the worst episode from season 9.

That is interesting, Spanky. I consider "The Empire Builders" to be among the better episodes from Season 9. Although not the best of the whole season. "Home Again' was better.

They bought the masks at the same place Charles bought the sheet to scare Joe Kagan!!
And yes, a question that can't be answered is confusing......Who knows? Nels may have had them
at the mercantile left over from Halloween. They could have bought them on a clearance sale!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I forgot about this episode. I notices, the children weren't in this episode. All you see them going to school, when Mes. Olsen was fixing Willie's hair. They didn't show Nels either. It's like, where the children go?

Glad, they stood up for they're land.

Where did Laura got that hand gun?
