Bat returns to Dodge City to buy the Lone Star Saloon but faces reprisal from rival saloon owner Mike de Graff, who wants to see the Lone Star torn down; fed up with Dodge's shady businesses, Mayor Kelley decides to drive out the saloons entirely.

Rumors of large buffalo herds prompt Bat and a number of hunters to ride out in search of pelts; Earp learns about a roaming tribe of Apache hunters and heads out to warn Bat, but hostilities quickly break out between the groups.

Mayor Kelley fires Earp for allowing Doc Holliday to go free after killing a man in self-defense, then appoints a new marshal who reveals his crooked nature by seeking protection fees from local saloons and killing one owner for not complying.
