Number Six wakes up with a new identity. Now he's Number Twelve. Worse, Number Two asks him to impersonate someone--Number Six. But the new Number Six is more like him than he is.

An instant learning process becomes the Village's latest fad, but Number Six is sure that Number Two is using it as a brain washing tool.

In a Wild West setting, a lawman who resigned is trapped in a town called Harmony where the Judge wants him to be the new sheriff - by hook or by crook.
