In this tense episode of Gunsmoke, a dangerous gunman named Kriego has made his way to Dodge City. Known for his cowardly tactic of goading men into drawing their guns so he can claim self-defense, Kriego has already left a trail of victims behind him, exploiting his skills to dodge the law. Marshal Matt Dillon, along with Chester, is determined to put an end to the havoc Kriego wreaks before more lives are lost.

When a series of confrontations between Kriego and Dodge City locals heightens the tension, Marshal Dillon is forced to confront Kriego himself, drawing a line between law and justice in the violent West. With no other way to stop the remorseless killer, Dillon takes the law into his own hands in a final showdown, putting his own life on the line to protect the town from Kriego’s reign of terror.
