With April’s encouragement, the group decides to stay together to help tame the new frontier. PopRot treats this as part of the continuous frontier-defense run: the important viewer question is how the featured conflict tests the Star Sheriffs’ combined skills, whether Ramrod/Bismarck is needed as the equalizer, and how the Outrider threat or local crisis changes the team’s next problem.
