Mrs Rifleman probably left him in time and should have taken the kid with her.If there was a child protection services at the time the kid would be in foster care as we speak.
I think the kid is a stone drunk hanging around the saloon and wishing that he was raised by Ozzie Nelson, or Fred McMurray.
Thank you for your insightful evaluation of Lucas McCain... NOT ! He was a great TV dad.
