Plot
Mexico, during the revolution. Some bandits attack a train and steal a safe. Two adventurous friends, the American Gringo and the Mexican Lucas, witness the theft and set out to track down the outlaws, hoping to seize the loot. Gringo and Lucas, however, encounter countless unexpected events, from which a mysterious individual will save them in the most critical situations. The two adventurers finally track down the safe in the bandits' hideout and manage to steal the gold, but the strange individual reappears, identifying himself as a captain of the American army charged with recovering the stolen gold. The captain seizes the gold and leaves. Gringo and Lucas, however, discover that the captain is merely a con man and set out to track him down. The con man accepts the offer to split the loot, but by deceiving them once again, manages to disappear with the gold.
