Are they Cousins?
They may be. In
The Man Who Broke the Bank at Red Gap (Pete Duel''s second to last
episode), Curry refers to "our sage old grandfather".
However, as he is not actually seen to say the words, this could
have been dubbed afterwards. The wording of the opening
credits was also changed for this episode to describe them as
"Kansas Cousins". It is not clear why this change
was made and some feel it could have been in preparation for Roger
Davis taking over the Hannibal Heyes role following Pete Duel's
death. In the previous episodes, there is nothing to suggest
that they are cousins.
For VS3, the
assumption is that they may be cousins - or they may not be!
We will never actually know for sure! What is agreed by all,
is that this makes little difference to the relationship between the
two which is based on strong friendship and total loyalty.
