The bounty hunter of the title comes to capture K9 for the murder of a President in the far future. It is extremely unfathomable that K9 would be capable of killing anyone let alone a President. Whilst making it appear that a regular character based on very hard evidence is indeed guilty of murder is something that has been done elsewhere, it was still very noble of K9 in wanting to turn himself in when he thought that he actually assassinated the aforementioned President. Quite a good climax when as expected K9 is revealed not to have committed the murder and quite a gruesome fate that befalls the bounty hunter. An interesting development of K9 coming under the charge of June Turner’s section in the Department. That way he is no longer hunted by the Department. In its own way the ferris wheel subplot at the beginning was enjoyable and noticed in the news headlines running across the TV screens when this incident was reported included that a Mr “Smith” had won the lottery. Most likely that this Mr “Smith” is meant to be the Doctor since he has on occasions used the John Smith name. The fact that this Mr “Smith” had won the lottery is probably meant to be an allusion to K9’s return appearance in Doctor Who, School Reunion in which the Doctor became a teacher at a school a job which he got after placing a winning lottery ticket in the mailbox of his predecessor.
