By Gift of Chance

While hiding out in a Mexican border town Ben is shot in an alley altercation. Fletcher shows up in the alley moments after a fellow American gets Ben off the street. The two return to America as part of a group of illegal workers. They are put to work on a tomato farm run by a cruel foreman. Ben recovers quickly from his gunshot, but the foreman has already had a visit from Fletcher and he assures Ben that he will call Fletcher if Ben causes any trouble. The foreman stands to gain half the farm from the widowed owner if a good crop of tomatoes gets to market on time. He will stop at nothing to accomplish this, including endangering the workers by exposing them to an illegal pesticide.
