The Rawhide Kid tries to stop a green-clad masked man from robbing a stage. But one winging shot leaves RK totally paralyzed! When the paralysis wears off, he pokes around in town. Turns out an apothecary arrived a few months ago and was bullied and humiliated. He invented a paralyzing solution in plastic bullets so a mere nick stops a man cold. He moved on to robbery. RK tracks him to an abandoned mine. As it collapses, The Scorpion is winged by his own bullet! "He came to a big untamed land and tried to conquer it - the wrong way!"
