Life on "Little House on the Prairie" wasnt always so wholesome.On the "Little House 50" podcast, Alison Arngrim (Nellie Oleson) and Dean Butler (Almanzo Wilder) revisited an episode that aired on Season 3 titled "Bully Boys." In it, viewers see the Galender brothers two adult men and a teenager arrive in Walnut Grove and wreak havoc on the town."There is so much woman-beating in this episode," said co-host Pamela Bob. "Its crazy."LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE STAR MELISSA GILBERT SAYS HER BIRTH FATHER KNEW HER IDENTITY AFTER WATCHING SHOW"Theyre cowards," said Arngrim, 63. "They dont want to fight the men. They wanted to attack the girls."The star admitted the episode was "disturbing.""First of all, I was creeped out by all three," she explained. "The minute they showed up and went to their cabin, I was creeped out. I didnt say, Oh, look at the two cowboys and their baby brother. I said, This is giving Texas Chainsaw Massacre vibes.""I mean, is there inbreeding going on here?" she asked about the on-screen siblings. "They dont seem right. There seems to be something the matter with these three guys. Why are they so weird? I thought they [were] creepy and disturbing. Im feeling Texas Chainsaw Massacre. They are disturbing. Theres something wrong with them right away.""This plot is very simple," said Butler, 69. "Its really about how much people will take."Butler noted the Galenders were "an illustration of no moral guardrails of any kind.""There is nothing that they wont do, and they think nothing of it because . . . no one is pushing back, until Mary [Ingalls, played by Melissa Sue Anderson] pushes back."CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERIn the episode, Roy Jenson played George Galender, Michael LeClair played Bubba Galender and Geoffrey Lewis played Sam Galender."Lets go back, though, to the schoolhouse," said Bob. "Theyre starting the grift, the intimidation factor. Theyre basically robbing them blind, and theres nothing they can do about it. Then we go to school, and we see Bubba, right? Were introduced to Bubba, whos also equally horrible in the school year. This was the craziest scene ever when he, out of the blue, punches Mary in the face over nothing."In the episode, Bubba purposely knocks a girl down with a dodgeball, People magazine reported. When Mary confronts him, he punches her, the outlet said."He could have killed this girl, by the way," said Bob. "You could kill someone by hitting someone in the face with a ball like that. So he purposely knocks out this girl. And then when Mary confronts him, he punches her, zero warning. So freaking hard. Its jarring to say the least. And as a viewer watching this, Laura [Ingalls, played by Melissa Gilbert] is surprisingly a little more nonchalant than Id like her to be about it."People reported that for the rest of the episode, Mary has a black eye. However, she feels pressured to stay quiet. Meanwhile, Nellie tries to be Bubbas girlfriend, an act Arngrim called "reprehensible.""She sees him beating women, and shes cool with it," said Arngrim.LIKE WHAT YOURE READING?

It's horrific," Bob said."It's really bad," Arngrim chimed in. "Theyre literally holding her and touching her. Nobody does that. And this is Caroline. I mean . . . Thats your mom. Thats everybodys mom. And theyre touching her. Theyre saying things . . . they wont let her leave. They have a hold of her. This is assault."WATCH: LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE CHILD STAR SAYS SET WAS LIKE MAD MENDuring the discussion, Arngrim praised Grassle, 83, for her performance."Her portrayal of trauma from sexual assault is so dead on," said Arngrim. "The desperation to say it wasnt that."In the episode, Caroline later confides in Charles Ingalls [Michael Landon] about the assault.Mary and Laura stand up to Bubba, and many of the children band together to fight back."The children have said, 'We're going to stand together, and we're going to handle this,'" Butler said. "And this is the . . . powerful allegorical moment for everybody to see. Its time to stand up together and be counted when someone is treating you wrong."In the end, Reverend Alden [Dabbs Greer], who had been sympathetic to the Galenders, calls them out during church on Sunday, the outlet reported. The men then help him eject them from the town. As theyre escorted out, Caroline leads the women singing "Onward, Christian Soldiers.""Ive never seen more woman beating in any television show," said Bob."Its stunning," said Butler."When I rewatch it, its like, holy moly, they actually went there," said Bob. "Anyway, were all OK now."
