Apparently the authorities want to bring him in for murder, so he moves from here to there, encountering a variety of characters. After Cardiff saves a man's life and is welcomed into -- though soon banished from -- the lucky soul's home, he meets an old cowpoke and a tenderfoot. Together, this threesome decides to create a travelling wild west show, rather than risk the often bloody destiny of a real cowboy. Cardiff will have to contend with many people, both sweet and savage, if he can leave behind his former life and commence a new one. [More]
