Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Thanks to his ability, Danny can draw each of the bandits who robbed the stage coach in which he was traveling with his father, who was killed. When he arrives to the next town he looks for a job helped by the sheriffs` daughter. In the bulletin board there are some posters of people and they offer a dollar reward for providing information about them. After many obstacles, each of the components of the band gradually disappears. Danny believes that only fits the sheriff, but he is in love with his daughter.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
