Outlaw Joe Daylight is on the run along with the other members of his gang which includes ‘The Kid’, Doc and Henri. After a bank robbery, they manage to elude the posse chasing them and cross into Mexico. The agrees to meet up later to divide up the money, however Daylight instead uses the money to buy the Casa Grande ranch. At first several of the gang protest, but finally agree to join Daylight at the ranch. They are soon joined by ‘The Traveler’, who has recently joined the gang.
Daylight plans to use the ranch as a cover to rustle cattle from his neighbors and sell them at inflated prices across the border. However, his comrades soon adapt to life on the ranch. The Traveler and The Kid meet two women named Dona Maria de Castellar and Pacesita, with whom they eventually fall in love.
Daylight's plans are temporarily threatened by another bandit gang led by Rojo, who begins stealing cattle from numerous ranches in the area including Casa Grande. Organizing the local ranchers against the bandits, they succeed in chasing off Rojo. This has an unintended consequence however as Daylight's men have decided to remain at Casa Grande. He and his men begin to argue and, during the course of events, shoot and kill Doc causing ‘The Traveler’ to kill Daylight in turn. With their former leader dead, the men stay on the ranch and ‘The Traveller’ and Maria begin a new life on the Casa Grande
