Spoilers ahead

Winnetou is able to save the chief’s daughter Ribanna from a bear attack during a ride to the Assiniboin tribe. Out of gratitude, her father releases three previously captured soldiers from torture stakes at Winnetou’s request. Among the soldiers is Lieutenant Robert Merril, the son of the Fort Niobrara commander, and he is meant to carry Winnetou’s message to his father: that Indians from all tribes want to meet at the fort to negotiate a lasting peace with the whites.

The three soldiers witness how Bud Forrester and his gang raid a Ponca village for its oil deposits, with six bandits ordered to kill. By chance, Old Shatterhand and Gunstick Uncle appear and rescue the unarmed soldiers.

In the Assiniboin camp, Winnetou and Ribanna grow closer and fall in love.
