Clay Lomax is released from prison after serving nearly eight years for robbing a bank. After saying farewell to the prison warden who warns him not to come back. He goes looking for his former crime partner Sam Foley (James Gregory (actor)), a bank robber who shot Lomax in the back as they ran from the bank and left him to be arrested. Learning of his release, Foley hires a trio of young thugs—Pepe (Pepe Serna), Skeeter (John Davis Chandler), and Bobby Jay Jones— (Robert F. Lyons (actor)) to track Lomax's movements. Lomax locates an old friend, Trooper (Jeff Corey), a former United States Army soldier, now confined to a wheelchair running a town saloon and offers him money for information about his double-dealing ex-partner and the name of the place where Foley is now located. The thugs catch up to Lomax at Trooper's saloon / hotel and force Alma (Susan Tyrrell), a prostitute / saloon girl working for the gruff but kindly old soldier, to spend the night with them. They wind up disturbing Clay from his sleep with his old girlfriend Emma (Rita Gam) with the wild racket in the neighboring room, and have an altercation with a thrown hidden knife from his boot in the corridor when then Lomax slaps Bobby Jay showing him who's the better man, savaging the crazed ego of the young budding predator criminal.
