Lightning Jim - Belle Starr The Female Outlaw. ep8.

The opening scene finds the notorious and ruthless outlaws torturing an indian brave to learn the location of his hidden gold. Though the Marshals have made numerous arrests, the leader of the gang has yet to be caught. Indians claim Belle is protected by spirits, but Yellow Foot, the one who was tortured at the start of the show, takes his story to Lightning Jim. Jim wants the indians to stay off the warpath until he has a chance to take down Bell Starr on his own. Jim and Whitey Larson plan to folow her into the Canyon of Lost Souls, despite any warnings of evil spirits there.

Meanwhile, Belle looks over her bounty of stolen horses, and complains to her hubby, Sam Star, and they talk about their next plans for robbery. It all seems like a story gimmick to me, to demonstrate the depths of Belle's ruthlessness.
