Synopsis

In the Escape episode 'Command', we are transported to the rugged landscape of the Old West, where the U.S. Cavalry is on high alert. Lieutenant Cohill, a young and ambitious officer, is tasked with finding a missing patrol led by Lieutenant Gresham. However, he is deeply frustrated by his commanding officer, Captain Brittle, whom he views as a relic of the past, unfit for the challenges they face. As they prepare to make camp, the tension between the two officers is palpable, with Cohill's youthful bravado clashing against Brittle's cautious demeanor.
