A slain trail-hand's brother joins the drive, seeking revenge on the murdering gang; guests June Lockhart, DeForest Kelley.

Gil Favor risks herd and reputation when he leads the drive across a desert inhabited by a thief and an outlaw.

A payroll robbery vexes Favor as he deals with disruption caused by an orphaned girl riding with the drovers.

Arriving to seek medical help, the drovers discover a vengeful man and his sons have taken a town prisoner.

An embittered landowner (Victor Jory) endangers the drive by denying the cattle access to water on his land.

While scouting for a possible outlaw attack, Favor and Rowdy meet a Spanish woman riding with drifters.
