Two bounty killers, Brandon and Murdock, called "Bible," have joined forces to collect twenty thousand dollars for the capture and hanging of the henchmen of Fargo, an individual enriched by importing illegally from Mexico peons that are sold for cheap labor. In reality, though, "Bible" is secretly working with Fargo, for protection. Brandon, unaware, goes to Fargo to obtain the release of Maya, a young woman and friend of the peons that was kidnapped to force her to marry him. "Bible" and Fargo then try to kill him, but Brandon manages to kill them and frees Maya, they give the money to the peons which had been earned at their expense by the two villains.
