Paladin is a gun for hire in the new west in 1800. His current task is to collect Caleb Barnes and deliver him to justice. The Barnes Gang attacked a wealthy ranch, killing several people and burning the house to the ground. Paladin kills the gang with little difficulty, taking time to explain to the youngest member of the gang why he is so unimportant in the grand scheme of the world. He rides with Barnes to Howard Springs to local sheriff, Joe. A flashback shows Paladin’s first day as a twelve-year-old slave on the Windham Plantation. He witnesses the death a young girl for simply looking up. In the fields he meets Zeem, a seeming wise old man who has survived longer than most. Zeem tells Young Paladin that is the best he can do; survive another day.
