Synopsis:
In the mountains near Seattle, the Question is rescued by Green Arrow who has stowed away in the truck that Eddie and Skinny used to take the Question up the mountain. The crooks are wounded and forced to lead the heroes to the camp where Butch and Sundance are expecting an arms shipment.

During the drive to the camp, Green Arrow refuses to untie the Question because he fears that Vic is another crook. Eventually the Question earns Ollie's trust and together they assault the camp. Ollie and Sundance are involved in a draw. Green Arrow outshoots the killer with his bow and arrow, while the Question dispatches of Butch. The heroes then take their prisoners to shelter to wait out a snowstorm before taking them to the authorities.
