Don Wildman explores the legend of Billy the Kid to uncover the truth surrounding his infamous death in 1881. Was the young outlaw really gunned down in the night by a sheriff, or did he somehow outrun the law and live to an old age? Don examines historic evidence, questions experts and investigates the conspiracy theories in his quest to finally put the controversy to rest.

The opening title reads: "A comedy with a smile–and perhaps a tear". As she leaves the charity hospital and passes a church wedding, Edna deposits her new baby with a pleading note in a limousine and goes off to commit suicide. The limo is stolen by thieves who dump the baby by a garbage can.
