content
A prison guard meets Lucky Luke and tells him that the Dalton brothers are locked up with him. When the Daltons find out about this, they break out of prison. Lucky Luke notices this and follows the brothers. Meanwhile, the Daltons have settled in a hut and are distributing fake wanted posters with a $ 50 million bounty on Lucky Luke, which they stick on en masse, so that the citizens of the surrounding cities are terrified of Lucky Luke. Even the sheriff is too scared that he doesn't realize that Lucky Luke wants to surrender to him. Since he allegedly robbed a stagecoach, he is said to be hanged in another city , although he wants to return the "booty" that was thrown to him. However, he can escape, but the sheriff has removed the cartridges from his Colt. He happens to meet the Daltons, who can therefore take him prisoner and make them their house boy, without whom they soon no longer want to do. After a while the five ambush a train, which has already been ambushed. In order to get loot anyway, they ambush a stagecoach that happened to be passing by. Two Daltons stand on one side of the stagecoach, Lucky Luke is supposed to come in, and pretends that he has come out again. So he can leave in the stagecoach in which a general is sitting. The Daltons flee from their hideout, but Lucky Luke and the cavalry can confront them, so that it comes to a duel between Lucky Luke and Joe Dalton in Bashful City. Joe has oiled his Colt so much that it slips out of his hand and Lucky Luke can knock him out with one blow. The other brothers surrender.
