Eines Tages kommt er nach Cross Creek. Hier lebt ein gewisser George Temple (Glenn Ford), der ebenfalls als Glanzschütze gilt, aber den Colt nach einem dunklen Kapitel in der Vergangenheit für immer beiseite gelegt hat. Doch eines Tages behauptet er in nicht mehr ganz nüchternem Zustand, der schnellste Revolvermann zu sein - und wird daraufhin von Winnie herausgefordert.
Whenever it becomes known how good he is with guns, ex-gunman George and his wife Dora have to flee the town, in fear of all the gunmen who might want to challenge him. Unfortunately he again spills his secret when he's drunk. All citizens swear to keep his secret and support him to give up his guns forever -- but a boy tells the story to a gang of wanted criminals. Their leader threatens to burn down the whole town, if he doesn't duel him.
