Synopsis for "Two-Gun Kid"

The Two-Gun Kid has ridden into Mexico to pay a visit to his old friend Don Estaban Rodriquez and bring gifts to his family. Finding no answer at the door, the Kid invites himself inside and finds Don mortally wounded, Don informs the Kid that his entire family was murdered by the bandits of the outlaw Verduga and that they are still outside. As Don dies, the Two-Gun Kid rushes out of the house with guns blazing, fighting his way through the men and escapes on his horse Cyclone. With the surviving members of the bandit gang, the Two-Gun Kid races across the border and finds a man waiting there. He warns the man of the approaching bandits and the two ride to safety together.

Thankful for the help, the man introduces himself as Able Stack and offers the Kid a job defending his shipments across the border and explains that the bandits have been robbing them. The Kid accepts and he is introduced to Diego who rides the wagon and Kansas who will be riding protection along with them. The Kid finds that Kansas does not like him but Diego is a nice enough man who has a wife who is expecting a child.

After reaching a certain point on their travels, Kansas orders them to stop and camp out for the night even though it is far too early to do so and they can still make more distance. This leads to a scuffle between Kansas and Diego and Two-Gun tries to get in the middle. The struggle causes the wagon to get knocked over revealing that there are guns and explosives hidden under what appears to be metal ore.

Suddenly, Verduga and his men surround them and it becomes apparent to the Two-Gun Kid that Able Stack had hired them for gun running. The Kid is tied up and is about to be executed while Verduga's men reload Diego's wagon. The Kid tells Diego to make a break for it and hops onto the wagon as it makes a quit get away. Verduga and his men begin firing and a bullet strikes Diego. The Kid tosses back some TNT that blows up the entire gang. Dying Diego tells the Two-Gun Kid to go to his wife and tell her what happened.

The Kid blows up the cache of weapons and then rides back across the border where he confronts Able and Kansas and mows them down to avenge Diego's death. The Kid then goes to the town where Diego's wife lives bearing the gifts he intended for the Rodriquez family.

That night the Two-Gun Kid camps out for the night he is suddenly attacked by the Ute warriors and confronted by their leader Totonka orders his men to bind the Kid and eliminate him in revenge for being treated poorly by white men in the past.

When he comes around, the Kid wakes up and gets the Ute and leads them on an attack on Farnum's cattle run.

When the locals get involved the Two-Gun Kid stops the battle and tells them how Farnum was selling the cattle and leaving the Ute to starve. Farnum pulls his gun on the Two-Gun Kid, but the Kid shoots him down and reveals the money Farnum was paid for the illegal sale of the cattle.
