His curiosity aroused, Paladin (Richard Boone) decides to find out why a man named Boise Peabody (Strother Martin) has purchased a gaudy costume for a chorus girl. It turns out that Peabody is under the impression that he is terminally ill, and figures he has nothing to lose to fulfill his lifelong dreams--ranging from squiring a pretty gal to killing the town bully. But when Peabody finds out that he's not going to die after all, it is up to Paladin to undo the damage left in the man's wake. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
