TEXAS JACK Ep. 2 | “Scouts of the Prairie”

Texas Jack and his good friend Buffalo Bill prepare for the most terrifying adventure of their lives: performing on stage in front of live audiences. They are savaged by the critics for their horrible acting abilities, but the audiences love the production … which is due more to the leading lady than the heroes of the plains. Italian ballerina Giuseppina Morlacchi graces the production with her talent, and she captures the heart of America’s first cowboy star.
