Notes
Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: When Brent tries to get the reins from the runaway horses you can see an extra set of reins going into the paddy wagon through the holes in the wall. These are the reins that a hidden person is using to control the 'runaway' horses. After Brent stops the horses and gets off the wagon, the reins are no longer in the holes. (more)
