Bound by a debt of honor dating back to the Civil War, Paladin (Richard Boone) offers his gun in service to ruthless land baron Costigan (Warren Stevens). A family of squatters led by a hothead named Clemenceau (Robert Stevenson) has settled on Costigan's land, and refuses to be moved--backing up their refusal with buckshot. Though legally Costigan is in the right, Paladin becomes disgusted by the land baron's violent methods, and by episode's end a change of heart seems to be on the menu.
