After Hank accidentally hits Horace in the nose, resulting in a trip to the clinic. Matthew tells Horace something he has learned from studying the law such that Horace has the legal right to have Hank pay his medical bills from Michaela.

Meanwhile, Dorothy finds the original deed for the telegraph office. When that's compared to the deed for Grace's cafe, it's found that a portion of the land that's occupied by Grace's cafe is in both deeds. This turns into a dispute between Dorothy and Grace.

After they send for the judge to settle these two matters, Loren claims that he was crippled due to a fall at Preston's hotel and sues for negligence. In an attempt to get Preston to pay for holding him to his "double your money back guarantee."

When a judge can't come, Dr. Mike is appointed proxy judge and must hear and rule on all 3 cases herself.
