Dick is running from the cops again, but unbeknownst to him, they are looking for someone else. In finding a place to hide, Dick meets Fritz Weaver, a convicted embezzler on the run. Fritz starts telling Dick his story, and it sounds hauntingly familiar. And Fritz isn't feeling well, which Dick determines as mountain fever. He takes Fritz's truck into town for medicine and is stopped by the police who are looking for the truck. They ask Kimble for his name and Dick appears to just make up a name, not the one he's using, but produces a driver's license with that name. Dick is amazing. The cops take him in and fingerprint him. They bring Fritz's daughter in and explain that Fritz is innocent. The President of the company made a death bed confession. Kimble escapes as the prints come back with his real identity, and goes to tell Fritz what's up. Fritz thinks it's all a lie to get him, and he's going to kill the owner's son, who he thinks really embezzled the money. Everyone winds up at the son's home, and Dabbs Greer is the son. Dabbs says dad really was the embezzler, he made him lie on the witness stand, and now Dabbs is going to be tried for perjury. Fritz finally starts to believe that this is true. The cops show up, Dabbs says that Fritz came alone, and Fritz gets the help he needs and is welcomed back as an old friend. Richard Kimble, on the other hand, remains.....a fugitive.
