To pursue a wanted outlaw, Chalk unwisely enters No Man's Land, a lawless area in no state's jurisdiction. He is soon wounded and forced to flee, encountering only an immigrant peddler and his son who fear getting involved in anyone else's affairs. Foreman and Slim search for Chalk, but the unofficial boss of No Man's Land puts out a bounty on him, to send a message that no lawman will leave the area alive.
