Plot Overview

Lucas had quite a good time at the barn dance the night before with Micah blaming him for a funny practical joke. When Micah locks him in a cell, Lucas thinks it's just friendly payback for the joke but Micah tells him the real reason: Lucas' one true enemy, Reef Jackson, is coming to town. Years before, Jackson shot Lucas in the back and tried to take his wife away from him. He's sworn revenge ever since. Meanwhile, Mark has gone hunting for a large elk that appears every year and that he's always dreamed of bagging. When Lucas and Mark confront their foes, they realize they are not quite what they expected.
