action

Large landowner Miller has not yet had enough: With terror and blackmail he tries to force smaller ranchers to give him his land cheaply. When the rancher's son Steve McGowan, whose father was even killed by Miller's people, is jailed by the corrupt sheriff, McGowan allies himself with the bandit Leon Pompero, whom he met there, in order to avenge the murder of his father. McGowan and Pompero manage to escape, whereupon Miller hires the gun hero Sabata to eliminate the adversaries. Things get a little more complicated when Steve falls in love with Miller's fiancée Helen, who is in the stagecoach where McGowan and Pompero are escaping. During the trip, Helen realizes the real characters of Miller and McGowan. After Miller's people manage to arrest both fugitives again, they escape again, with McGowan shooting Sabata and moving to another area with Helen. Pompero receives enough estate from Miller, who has also been killed, to ensure a carefree life.
