"The Scourge of Black Shadow Mountain" is a vicious mountain lion. The Dorado Gang captures sham-sheriff Walt and orders storekeeper Wayne to release the rest of their gang - or Walt gets thrown to the cougar. Wayne rides up the mountain, is ambushed and coshed, and temporarily blind. He finds Walt tied up, and together they "sight" on the cougar and shoot it. Good thing Wayne was blind. "I wouldn't have the nerve to shoot at a springing lion!"

Elkhorn, a conniving medicine man, demands "gifts" be left on the Medicine Tree to be carried away by the Thunderbird eagle. The tribe is impoverished and hungry. Strong Bow, the Wandering Warrior, shoots himself as a "human arrow" onto a mountain and finds the "gifts" scented with mesquite flowers. He switches the essence on the offerings to make the eagle accept his bow as a gift, exposing the medicine man as a shyster - who must return everything.
Lt Dan Foley has lost his hat, saber, and boots - stolen. He tracks his own boot marks to find Leaping Bear, a Comanche, who stole the items to steal Dan's "strength and medicine". Dan surrenders to learn more, but his surrender, a sign of weakness, encourages the Comanches to raid the fort! Foley demands trial by combat and, unarmed, defeats Leaping Bear. "We shall not go to war." And Foley needn't worry about theft anymore.
