The Circus Man

No airings scheduled.

Episode Details


The Ingalls receive a midnight visit from Will O’Hara, a traveling circusman who, with his irresistably charming demeanor, persuades Charles to let him set up in front of their home. Whether he’s pulling eggs out of people’s ears or proudly toting around his congrilla, O’Hara’s tricks are all in good fun–until he introduces a slew of “magic powders” that supposedly heal a variety of illnesses. When O’Hara’s little theory nearly costs an appendicitis-stricken Mrs. Oleson her life, Charles asks him to leave town–only to track him down again in the wake of a family crisis.
