Synopsis:
Iron Jaws is bitten by a poisonous snake. Jonah rushes him to a doctor and throws a human patient out the window. The patient alerts Butch and Dan, two brothers with a score to settle with Jonah. When Hex leaves the doctor's office, they ambush him.

Hex revives in the desert. The two brothers tie him to the ground, leaving him to die from exposure. After they leave, the wounded wolf Iron Jaws drags himself across the ground to help Jonah. The wolf chews through Hex's ropes, before he dies. Hex then hunts down the brothers and takes his revenge. He kills one and leaves the other to die from the bite of a rabid mountain lion.
