Timothy, a shy and well-mannered young man, after getting his law degree, moves to the West where he has inherited a gold mine. But his life soon becomes difficult, because the area is dominated by a rich Mexican, eager to take possession of Timothy’s mine. Rodriguez relentlessly kills all those who agree to work there. Luckily for Timothy, his faithful friend Corky, reduced to despair by the oppression of the Mexican, manages to track down and engage four of his brave comrades in arms: Black Fox, Abel, Brett and Burt. After arriving at the Timothy’s ranch, they endeavor to make him as soon as possible a perfect western hero. When Timothy proves to have learned the lessons he’s been taught, hostilities open taking place at different times resulting in a  large number of corpses. In the final showdown with the Mexican, Timothy is forced to fight with only the help of his girlfriend. But the heavy fire of the two allows the posse of friends to arrive in time for the total elimination of the band. Timothy, a man of law and now a happy groom, is elected sheriff of the now peaceful country.
