Passin' Through, an unconventional Robin Hood-esque figure, robs trains or locals in whimsical ways—such as stealing a ticket punch or charging fines for watches—and gives the proceeds to single mothers and orphans. Initially driven by the belief that he was born out of wedlock, he uncovers a dark past involving a villain, leading to a pursuit of revenge and redemption.
