Walker is able to snap Trivette out of his HeroicBSOD and he agrees to revisit the scene of the crime, then while goes out for a run to clear his head beforehand, the victim's vengeful older brother is about to shoot and kill him after buying a gun from an unlicensed seller, but quickly relents at the last minute when Trivette runs into a mounted police officer on horseback, who also believes he is innocent, stating this sort of thing has likely happened before and is considered the worst nightmare of every law enforcement officer. Hence, the mounted officer and everyone in his department are in his corner.
** In Season 8's "Rise to the Occasion", Walker did this to 12-year-old Henry Monroe who decided to kill himself due to his poverty-stricken life and relentless bullying.

''Walker, Texas Ranger'' was a combination of martial arts, modern Western and [[PoliceProcedural Police]] and LawProcedural, starring Creator/ChuckNorris as the titular Texas Ranger, Cordell Walker. Based in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, the series covers numerous crimes Walker investigates all over the metro area, and from time to time, even all around the State of Texas and even outside of Texas, whether it be different states or outside the country, from {{Dirty Cop}}s to {{Corrupt Politician}}s to gangs to terrorists and the like. Other main characters include Cordell's best friend and partner James "Jimmy" Trivette (Creator/ClarenceGilyard), Tarrant County Assistant District Attorney Alex Cahill (Creator/ShereeJWilson), who also serves as his love interest, and Walker's former partner, veteran Ranger-turned-restauranteur C.D. Parker (the late Creator/NobleWillingham). During the final two seasons, two rookie Texas Rangers Francis Gage (Creator/JudsonMills) and Sydney Cooke (Creator/NiaPeeples) joined the fray.
