Cable Hogue (Jason Robards) gets stuck out in a desert with no water because he has been betrayed by his former partners, Bowen (Strother Martin) and Taggart (L. Q. Jones). Cable prays for help and then finds water and a coach headed for Deaddog City. He encounters a minister called Joshua Sloane (David Warner), who says he should claim the land he found; and then he meets a prostitute called Hildy (Stella Stevens). Cable gets money from a bank and constructs a stage station with food, restroom, and water. Hildy and Cable become lovers and live together, but Cable wants to pay back Bowen and Taggart before moving away with her.
