SYNOPSIS
When Johnny and Mendez argue, the lights go out, and in the ensuing gunfight Johnny thinks he killed his friend Dick. Now refusing to wear a gun he crosses the border. But it is not long before he runs into Mendez and more trouble.
South of the border, Johnny Darrel and his fellow American sidekick are nearly broke and eager to return to Texas. They meet Oscar, a fellow American who is forced to work for Manuel Mendez, the owner of the cantina. Johnny decides to enter a poker game to gain money to buy Oscar out of his debt, but when Mendez is caught cheating, Johnny shoots out the lights. During the shootout his friend is killed with Mendez convincing Johnny that he did the deed.
