The men protect immigrant shopkeepers harassed by thugs in a protection racket. Meanwhile, Billy confronts the fact he's illiterate and goes to adult education classes to learn how to read. He winds up conneting the gang involved in the protection racket.
In the series premiere the members of the Pike gang are on the run from a posse lead by former member John Grail in 1886. During a showdown during a lightning storm in an Indian graveyard they are transported forward 100 years and are quickly introduced to the modern world. They manage to get by using their now-highly valuable gold coins but Isaiah, Wolf, and Billy soon strike off on their own and run afoul of a crime lord. John and Harland come to the rescue and they manage to take the man down, and form the Double-Eagle Detective Agency to bring the code of the Old West to the present.
While providing security for one of their clients, Harland Pike becomes infatuated with a woman who looks remarkably similar to his old love from the past.
