Personality[]
Wildcat McGraw is portrayed as a dangerous and elusive outlaw with a personality that is primarily antagonistic. He actively enjoys "getting into trouble" and causing mayhem and uses intimidation tactics, such as pulling branches to leave people hanging, to assert dominance and control. He is known for being hard to catch, making him a challenging opponent for the town's law enforcement. He strongly dislikes sheriffs and the prospect of being captured. He also dislikes "tricksters" (likely referring to con artists who might interfere with his own brand of outlaw activities).
Role in the series[]
The episode starts with Sheriff Callie chasing after McGraw. Just as Callie is about to lasso McGraw, the cat pulls back a tree branch and it snaps back, leaving Callie hanging and allowing McGraw to escape.
When Tricky Travis and Oswald come across one of the wanted posters, Travis decides to disguise himself as McGraw and turn himself in to get the reward money. When Oswald comes into town with Travis wearing his Wildcat McGraw disguise, Peck locks Travis up and hands three bags of gold to Oswald. While Callie is out searching for McGraw, she comes across Pecos Pug, who tells her that Deputy Peck has just locked McGraw away. While Callie goes back to Nice and Friendly Corners, the real McGraw takes note that the sheriff is off his trail, and goes back to resume his wrongdoings.
Oswald manages to free Travis from prison, and the two celebrate by getting some baked beans at the saloon. McGraw comes into the bar, catches a glimpse of Travis' disguise, and decides that Travis might make a good partner. But McGraw tells Travis he doesn't like tricksters, so Travis nervously tells him otherwise. McGraw takes Travis along with him while Oswald cowers under a tablecloth.
Out in the open, McGraw spots Pecos' stagecoach approaching and instructs Travis to stop the coach while he prepares to loot it. Travis tries unsuccessfully, and ends up riding on the yoke. After McGraw snaps a branch at Pecos and leaves him hanging, Travis' disguise falls off, exposing his identity. Angry at being deceived, McGraw chases Travis, jumping from one horse to another to try and grab the weasel. But Callie snaps a branch at McGraw, and leaves it hanging. Oswald catches McGraw, thinking it's his partner, and them tosses McGraw in the air after finding out he's mistaken. Callie ensnares McGraw with her lasso, and puts him under arrest.
