Warning: Spoilers
An old western, that isn't that old. In the late 1950's PAWNEE looked old and somewhat modern. A young white boy named Paul Fletcher(George Montgomery)is raised by a Pawnee Chief Wise Eagle(Ralph Moody). Blue eyed Pale Arrow reaches manhood, and still a favorite of the Chief, is ejected from the tribe. His future and loyalties will become tested when he takes a job as a scout for a wagon train. He will be taking wagons of white people into Indian Territory. Tensions rise when peace-loving Wise Eagle dies leaving a war-minded Crazy Fox(Charles Horvath)taking over leading the tribe. Crazy Fox just happens to be Paul/Pale Arrow's archenemy. Any peace on the prairie will be blemished.

The cast also features: Bill Williams, Lola Albright, Robert Griffin, Kathleen Freeman, Dabs Greer, Bill Coontz and Francis McDonald.
