Larry Day, foreman of the 3X Ranch, and his men are pursuing a gang of rustlers when Jake Landis, who is being forced into rustling by Thorne, the bandit chief, is saved by his daughter Jeanne, who gives him her horse and then confronts Larry. They soon fall in love. Meanwhile, a wandering horse leads the men to Landis, who is then arrested and locked up at the ranch. Jeanne attends a dance at the ranch, and Jeff Thorne threatens to accuse her father of the commission of all their crimes unless she agrees to marry him. Larry overhears, and the rustlers meet head on with the ranch men and are captured. Larry and Jeanne are united.
