Cobber Bannon (Robert Fuller) is a surly, belligerent, and somewhat simple young man who lives in the protective shadow of his small-time criminal brother, Joker. When a cholera outbreak sweeps through San Francisco as a result of contaminated water, Cobber falls victim to the disease. Robert’s performance is heart-wrenching as a vulnerable, frightened Cobber faces certain death. During filming, Robert, feeling tired and worried he wasn’t giving his best, credits his director for the success of this scene. His words of encouragement enabled Robert to stay focused during the many takes required to capture different camera angles. The part of Cobber is quite different from Robert’s later roles. Instead of a six gun, Cobber is armed with two boomerangs and a knife. Series star, Richard Coogan, later appeared in six episodes of Laramie.
