After a jade chess set owned by the uncle of hotel bellhop Hey Boy (Kam Tong) is stolen, Paladin (Richard Boone) agrees to track down the thieves and reclaim the loot. Riding to a lonely Montana town in hopes of intercepting the outlaws, Paladin spends the night in a rundown boarding house owned by Ma Warren (Jeanette Nolan). Before long, the original mission is all but forgotten as Paladin becomes enmeshed in a star-crossed romance between Ma's daughter Nancy (Lisa Gaye) and her would-be husband Chuck Anderson (Corey Allen, previously seen as James Dean's "chickie run" rival in Rebel Without a Cause). Future Bonanza costar Dan Blocker shows up in a minor role.
