In the bacground a lone rider is seen approaching a campsite, he is invited by Django to sit down at his campfire. The rider is a bounty killer and his victim is a man called Garvin. The dead man turns out to be Django's father. So Django shoots the bounty killer, takes his father's body into town, and collects the bounty himself! In town he is told by the local busybody Gordon, who likes the smell of money so much he hangs out at the bank all day, that Django has become the co-owner of both the bank and the saloon. It soon becomes clear that Django's father was framed by his business partner Kluster, who now wants to get rid of the son and Django must face a number of obstacles and six-guns to obtain his inheritance.
