Originally broadcast as four episodes of Lassie, thus we end up with a long feature length TV movie. In sequence this lies before The Wayfarers as Lassie is still Timmy's dog. She gets lost in a big fucking lake but is rescued by nice Ranger Corey Stuart (Robert Bray), who it seems to me is living in a long term gay relationship with a friendly author. He whisks her off to other adventures where people keep doing stupid things, like when there's a big forest fire and he's told to get away from the area he rushes straight in and succumbs to fumes - Lassie saves him for the first of two times.
Anyhoo - so all this explains why dog and Ranger have the great bond we saw exhibited in The Wayfarers.
