Initially resistant to becoming a lawman, Wyatt Earp has a change of heart after seeing the sheriff of Ellsworth, Kansas murdered by the inebriated brother of town scourge Ben Thompson.

Matt teams with Pat Garrett after a large herd of horses is stolen.

Matt and Frankie go to Kansas City to aid in the capture of outlaw brothers Frank and Jesse James.

Earp jails Ben Thompson in the hope that his brother Bill will attempt a jailbreak, but the Marshall underestimates the naive Abbie Crandall, who is also determined to help Ben escape.

A quick-tempered former Confederate officer with a grudge against Wyatt threatens to destroy Ellsworth if Wyatt is not immediately stripped of his badge and run out of town.

Earp's insistence on patiently stalking the Thompson brothers with a pair of Indian scouts doesn't sit well with some Ellsworth citizens who demand immediate capture of the two fugitives.
