](font:"Courier")[The year is 1871. A man rides a horse through the desert.
His name is Lionel Davis, and he has traveled very far in search of his quarry. He’s a lawman of sorts, albeit one who’s authority is unrecognized by local law enforcement. He's a man who firmly believes that those who break the law must be punished. A man who is willing to do anything to stop those who bring chaos and disorder into the banal lives of the common folk who live on the western frontier.
His target is a man named Charles Plymouth, a doctor who killed his wife then fled to the frontier to avoid prison. Lionel’s opinion of Mr. Plymouth is rather low and will become far lower by the time he returns home.
His horse trots up a large hill. In the distance, he sees the town of Marco, a small frontier settlement centered around a large mine located in the distance. As the sun rises, Lionel rides into the town of Marco, a place where the hands of fate have been shackled by a man who can't comprehend the consequences of his actions.

A security camera hangs from the ceiling, aimed at the empty cell. A portly Sheriff lounges in a chair, eating from a box of donuts and reading a comic book.
(color: red)[“You’re the Sheriff, I presume?”] Lionel says.
(color: cyan)[“That’s a fair assumption,” the Sheriff says, setting his book on the table. “I’m the Sheriff, Daniel Callaghan.]
The Sheriff extends his hand for Lionel. Lionel doesn’t shake it. (color: cyan)[“You know, normally, when someone introduces themselves, it’s polite to say your name.”]
(color: red)[“Lionel Davis.”]
(color: cyan)[“What can I do for you, Lionel?”]
(color: red)[“I’m looking for a man, Charles Plymouth. Do you know him?”]
The Sheriff smiles. (color: cyan)[“Of course I know Dr. Plymouth. Everyone in town knows him.”]
(color: red)[“Where I can find him?”]
(color: cyan)[“Well, I’m not really sure where he is right now. He has a workshop out in the old mine north of town, you might find him there. Is it urgent that you find him soon?”]
(color: red)[“He’s a wanted fugitive.”]
Sheriff Callaghan frowns. (color: cyan)[“I find that hard to believe. For what crime is he wanted?”]
(color: red)[“He’s wanted for a number of things, including killing his wife.”]
(color: cyan)[“That doesn’t sound like something Charlie would do.”]
(color: red)[“With all due respect, I don’t really care what you think Plymouth would do. I have a warrant for his arrest and intend to bring him in.”]
Sheriff Winchester pauses for a moment before yelling for his deputy. The deputy comes running in.
(color: green)[“What is it, sir?”] he says.
(color: cyan)[“Head down to Abigail’s, see if you can find Dr. Plymouth. Mr. Davis here would like to have a word with him.”]
The deputy leaves without another word.
(color: red)[“Abigail’s?”]
(color: cyan)[“The local saloon. If Charlie’s in town, that’ll be where you’ll find him. In the meantime, how about the two of us talk?”]

The place is empty, save for a few drunks passed out in the corner and a young man scrubbing down the bar. A record player sits on the bar, playing smooth jazz. Lionel walks up to the bar and sits down.

(color: orange)[“Yes, sir,” the bartender replies.]
(color: red)[“Give me a beer.”]
(color: orange)[“Are you sure, sir? It’s awfully early.”]
(color: red)[“Humor me.”]
The bartender grabs a bottle from beneath the bar, cracks it open and hands it to Lionel. Lionel takes a sip. (color: red)[“It’s cold.”]
(color: orange)[“Is that a problem, sir?”]
(color: red)[“Don’t worry about it.”]
The booming voice of a woman echoes through the Saloon. (color: magenta)[“Remmington!”] she shouts, (color: magenta)[“What did I tell you about playing those records while we have customers?”]
A middle-aged woman wearing a pink hat walks behind the bar and turns of the record player.
(color: orange)[“Sorry, ma’am.”]

The woman with the pink hat looks at Lionel. (color: magenta)[“You new in town?”]
