After Indio and his gang rob the bank in El Paso they ride off to a desert oasis and meet up with Manco. Indio tells the gang they will hideout in the village of Agua Caliente but he wants to make sure it is safe so he sends Manco in ahead of them to clear the path of anyone who might get in their way. Manco runs into three Mexican gunmen who challenge his presence. But he’s joined by Colonel Mortimer and the two show their prowess with pistols but shooting apples off a nearby tree that a young boy is trying to harvest. The three Mexicans quickly dissolve back to where they came from. Manco and the colonel go into a posada and are soon joined by Indio and the rest of the gang. While they enjoy a dink Wild, the hunchback, recognizes the colonel from their run-in at the saloon in El Paso. It results in a duel with the colonel shooting and killing Wild.
Although the exterior of the cantina was a building in Los
Albaricoques, the interior of the building used for this scene was at the foot
of the road off highway M-340A just before Oasys/Mini Hollywood.
The building as seen today that was used for the interior
scene shown above.
