A bitter feud in the New Mexico town of Santos has as its central figure a notorious Mexican gunman named Juan Carlos Morita (Christopher Dark). At first, Paladin (Richard Boone) is willing to help the townsfolk capture Morita, but he is quickly disgusted by their own acts of brutality. Ultimately, and after much unnecessary bloodshed, Morita strikes a deal with Paladin: He will hang up his guns if he is allowed to return to his home town and marry his sweetheart Maria (played by a young Suzanne Pleshette). Unfortunately, Maria has other plans--and Paladin finds himself up to his neck in another volatile situation! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
