Doc Snyder returns after more than 30 years to his hometown in Texas with a bag full of dirty laundry for his mother to wash. During a raid on a stagecoach he loses the laundry bag. One of the passengers a hangman, an aging gunslinger who was also robbed, is out for revenge.
He meets his badly shaven mother and learns his brother Hank is to be hung. A duel with the hangman is inevitable. Doc meets Dear God and two people from another time who he brings into the plot: Commissioner Schneider and his assistant. The film ends with the fact that the Commissioner Doc Snyder runs over to a car, that at time didn’t exist and states Doc Snyder also did not exist.
