Plot Overview

While chasing after two bank robbers, Sam kills one in self-defense. The bank robber's son, Chris, is naturally very upset and threatens to kill Sam. Sam has no choice but to take Chris back to the boarding house where Martha will take care of him. Chris has a lot of anger and is mean to Tess and another boy. Sam stops the fight between Chris and Dave, then talks to Chris about not using a rock as a weapon during a fight. Chris knows the other bank robber and sees him in town. While talking to Sam, Chris informs him he can lead Sam to the bank robber. Sam feels it may be a trick but decides there is no other way around it. He even brings a rifle so the boy can learn how to shoot.
