Output (English): Lonnie Wilson Ken Scott, the son of a sharecropper, Zuba Wilson Douglas Fowley, returns to his small southern hometown of Clinton, Louisiana after spending six years on the chaingang for killing Colonel Ben Marquands son, Davey, in an automobile accident. He revives his love affair with Melinda Marquand Martha Hyer, who is now Mrs. Melinda Thomas, having married Dr. Ned Thomas Brett Halsey while Lonnie was serving time in her place for the accident she caused. Somewhat miffed about all this, Lonnie incites Dr. Ned about his wifes infidelity, which Dr. Ned verifies when he catches Lonnie and Melinda in a semitorrid embrace in Colonel Marquands hunting lodge. Melinda, looking for an explanation, shoots and wounds Lonnie to defend her innocence by claiming she was being raped. Colonel Marquand Raymond Burr, who had bribed Lonnie to take the blame for his daughter, uses her story to have Sheriff Wheaton Kelly Thordsen kill Lonnie, thereby putting an end to all this mess. Mrs. Marquand Joan Bennett eventually faces Daveys death and realizes that she witnessed Melinda run down her little brother. Peter Marquand Jack Ging and Ned return to the lodge and inform Otis that the charges against Lonnie are all lies. Exonerated, Lonnie gives Zuba the deed to the farm, and the old man dances in delight, thrilled to finally own his land.
