"Legend" still isn't comfortable in his role of an alcoholic, cowardly author who must live up to the reputation of the dime-store cowboy hero he's created. In this episode he learns that a bank robber who is accused of not only robbing a bank, but killing a company bank guard, will surrender ONLY to Legend. With an accused killer and plenty of potentially trigger-happy security men promised to be in place for the surrender, Legend is very hesitant to be part of the entire proceeding. THEN, "Gentleman Jim" Siringo, the outlaw, approaches Legend at night, in an alley, and convinces him that not only did he NOT kill the guard, but he only got away with ten thousand dollars, not the 250 thousand claimed. He asks Legend to investigate and set the record straight. Legend and Bartok must engage in the new science of Forensics to clear Siringo's name ... at least for the charge of murder .
