Plot: Paladin (Walton Goggins) lies in bed with Cassandra (Lara Jean Chorostecki) after a passionate roll in the hay. She says she's surprised he is still interested in her after she pulled a gun on him previously. Paladin kisses her on the neck and tells her that if he disassociated himself from everyone who had pulled a gun on him he wouldn't have very many acquaintances. Cassandra then reaches over to her bag and pulls out a deck of Tarot cards and asks to read Paladin's fortune. Paladin laughs at the idea, but Cassandra insists that the cards see the future and that she lives her life based on what the cards tell her, which is the only reason she is in bed with him today. Paladin sits up and tells her to go ahead and give it a go. She holds out the cards for him and Paladin picks the Chevalier of Swords. Cassandra tells him that means he will travel far and see much. Paladin says that goes hand in hand with his line of work so it's not much of a prediction, but he will be traveling to Temple City, California the next morning, but there's not a whole lot to see there. Cassandra draws the next card and sees Death. This spooks Cassandra almost to the point of tears. The next card is the Drowned Sailor, which Cassandra says will help him. Paladin laughs, pointing out that he's unlikely to meet a drowned sailor in the desert.

The next day, Paladin rides into Temple City and passes and undertaker leading a horse with a coffin to the graveyard. He goes to Mincus' Outfitters and Mincus' daughter June (Fiona Dourif) comes out to greet him. Mincus (Brad Dourif) comes out and tells June to go inside. Once she does, Minsuc says that Paladin would stay away out of consideration of June. Paladin says that isn't much of a greeting for an old friend. The two then discuss a man in town who has proclaimed that he will kill the first gunslinger who arrives in town. Paladin says he's been hired to make sure he was the first gunslinger in town to take care of the matter.

That night, Paladin goes to the town saloon to get dinner. At the saloon, a drunk, Philpotts (Robert Joy), passes out drunk. Paladin and another man, Dancer (Garret Dillahunt) help the drunk out of the saloon and onto a bench outside so he can sleep it off. Paladin then notices a sailor's tattoo on the drunk's arm. Dancer points out that Paladin is carrying a gun and introduces himself. Dancer then casually says that he's going to kill Paladin and will see him in the morning to resolve the matter. Paladin warns Dancer that he makes a reluctant victim. Dancer then walks away.

Philpotts wakes up and Paladin helps him up and advises him to get some sleep. Mincus comes over and asks if Paladin met Dancer. Paladin confirms that he did and that he plans to go to sleep and worry about that in the morning. Mincus advises Paladin to get out of town while he still can. Paladin says he won't be pushed around by some unbalanced man, but Mincus warns him that they won't give an out of town gunslinger a room at the hotel.

Later that night Paladin is sleeping in a stable. He wakes up and finds that his gun is missing. When the sun rises, he goes to the sheriff's to report the theft. The sheriff isn't surprised and suggests Paladin leave town. Paladin asks for a gun to protect himself. The sheriff tells Paladin that Dancer practically owns the town. When Paladin leaves the office, he is greeted by Philpotts who thanks him for his help. Paladin asks if he has a gun he can use, but Philpotts says that nobody in town has a gun. Paladin goes to Mincus' shop and is greeted by June. Paladin asks for a gun, and June says they don't sell them. Mincus comes in and repeats what June said when Paladin asks him. Paladin says he just wants to protect himself from Dancer as he rides out of town. Mincus draws a gun on Paladin and tells him that he can't give him one since he can't afford Dancer finding out.

As a storm takes over the town, Paladin heads back to the stable to gather his things and leave town. He hears someone outside and hides in the loft. Dancer enters the stable and grabs a sickle, making him look like the Grim Reaper in the light of a lightning flash. Dancer starts cutting into the hay. Paladin calls out from the shadows, asking why he wants to kill him so much. Dancer says that men like Paladin do nothing but make dead bodies. Dancer then pulls out a gun and starts shooting up toward the loft. Philpotts comes in with a gun and tosses it to Paladin. Paladin then jumps down from the loft and shoots Dancer. June comes into the stable and gives Paladin back his gun and walks away. Paladin thanks Philpotts and says that he's the Bloody Chevalier and Dancer was Death. Philpotts is confused by Paladin's cryptic comment and suggests they get a drink.
