This time he pays an actor to impersonate the husband of a girl Frank was anxious to meet. Souring on her, he agrees to the next job. That job turns out to be a special mission to transport captured outlaw Cole Younger to trial, all incognito. Adding to their worries, Johnny coaxes Frank into hiding a fortune in gold in the coach without Fred's knowledge. At a way station, a supposedly dying woman is allowed to board, to rush her to a doctor, but she turns out to be Younger's girlfriend, Belle Starr, who helps overpower the crew and leads the coach to an ambush.
