Synopsis for "King of the Wild"

While the Two-Gun Kid is out riding he is caught in the middle of a stampede and with the help of his horse Cyclone he just barely avoids being trampled to death by ducking into a nearby cave. As the stampede bolts by he sees men running the cattle as well. When he exits the cave the cattle owners spot the Two-Gun Kid and accuse him of being one of the rustlers. However the ranch owner turns out to be the Kid's old friend Johnny Linford, who tells his ranch hands to stand down. The Kid agrees to help him try and find the rustlers.

While searching along a river, Johnny suspects that the thief is Bronic Riatt an outlaw he put away during his days as sheriff of Malpais country who swore revenge. As they search along the water Johnny spots a wild horse that has also been stealing his mares. Breaking off to search on his own, the Two-Gun Kid witnesses as the "Wild One" brings a herd of horses across the river and behind a waterfall. Investigating he finds a cave on the other side that leads to a clearing where Bronc and his men have the stolen cattle stashed.

During the gun fight, the Kid is forced to make a break for it but Cyclone trips and is injured. Needing a horse, the Kid manages to rope and tame the Wild One and use him to set the cattle on a stampede, trampling Bronc and his men. After returning the stolen cattle and Cyclone back on his feet, the Two-Gun Kid lets the Wild One go free once again.
