The boys find a cabin under a hanging rock where Hondo proposes killing the witness and dumping her in a hole. Silk concurs. The boys blast red pepper through the window, charge the room swinging, disabling the villains. Billy checks Sandy, who says bind the badmen first, then unbind her. Riding with the prisoners, Ted hears the outlaws' signal. They hush. Sandy's horse whinnies! The arriving gang think it's Silk coming in late. The kids make town, toss a note through the sheriff's bedroom window saying pick up the badmen and the counterfeit money they'd been passing.
