Eight years ago, Cheyenne Indians attacked the Baudine Family wagon and captured Morgan, whom they renamed Two Persons. Now Two Persons, raised in the ways of the Indians, has been reunited with his brother Quentin, a doctor and a stranger to frontier ways. Together the brothers set out in search of their sister Patricia, who was also captured and who Two Persons believes is still alive.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was a backdoor pilot for a prospective NBC series that never got picked up, leaving the Baudine brothers' search eternally unfinished.
The 'white child raised by Natives' trope was having a moment in 1976, but this predates the more famous 'The Searchers' riffs by decades.
