- Malevolent, crazed old cattle rancher (Jess Hode) is demanding half of Favor's thirsty herd for the "privilege" of passing through what he illegally calls his private land and private water. Favor's men are indignant and want to fight, and Hode has even more men on his side equally ready for a shootout. Years ago Hode had been dismissed as a trail boss due to advanced age, and he despises the whole world. He built up his stock stealing and re-branding cattle siphoned off cattle drives passing through. Favor's cattle are doomed to die of thirst unless they get Hode's water. Resenting his son's siding with Favor, Hode is now demanding all of Favor's cattle. Hode lied to his kindly son and wife that there is not enough water for his and Favor's cattle. They are appalled when they learn the truth. Both sides are lined up ready to fire on each other.—chipe
