Plot
In a cold open, two bandits kill a man and begin looting his belongings. No-Name arrives and kills them after a brief conversation.
On the way into Deadwood Town, No-Name comes across a bounty poster for a man named The Squint. He eventually encounters the man in town and chases him into the woods nearby. After a prolonged gunfight, The Squint tricks No-Name's horse Easy into running off a cliff to its death and subsequently escapes. After burying Easy, No-Name returns to town and interrogates the townsfolk until he learns The Squint's whereabouts.
On The Squint's path, No-Name has a strange encounter with a man whose face is covered by a red bandana. Soon after, he encounters a native man named Chin Chakanawa who decides to join No-Name on his quest. They run into trouble when another native man blocks their path. They attempt to get by him by disguising themselves as nuns, but the ploy fails and he begins beating them up. However, two passing hicks believe them to be genuine nuns in danger and kill the other native man. After killing the hicks, No-Name discovers an invitation on one of their bodies to a meet-up of outlaws.
The duo rest up for the night. No-Name teaches Chin how to shoot. Chin reveals his name means 'Running Sore' and No-Name reveals that his name is actually Walter.
The following morning the duo encounters a man named Jimmy James who decides to join them on their quest. The trio soon finds The Squint and a number of other outlaws digging for treasure. No-Name knocks out a guard and disguises himself to approach The Squint, but the disguise fails and No-Name runs off with The Squint and the other outlaws in hot pursuit. Just as the outlaws catch up with him, Chin creates a distraction, leaving only one of the outlaws to guard No-Name. After No-Name fails to get Jimmy's attention, Chin circles back and kills the guard. The duo picks off the rest of the outlaws one-by-one, but Chin says that No-Name must face the final confrontation with The Squint alone.
No-Name approaches The Squint and they stare each other down. No-Name reveals that years ago, The Squint had destroyed No-Name's sandcastle, twisted his arm, given him a noogie, and piled on him with several other boys. After the flashback the two get into an argument about how Westerns usually end, particularly Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. A fight ensues. No-Name appears to shoot The Squint to death, but The Squint gets up for one last attack bef
