Yankee Davis (Douglas Fowley) and his partner, professor Newton (Ransom Sherman), are a pair of traveling hucksters on their way to a town in Arizona. Soon after they arrive, Yankee falls for a local girl, Mary Mason (Joan Woodbury). Mary's lawman father turns up dead, and Yankee is sure the man was murdered, but the death is ruled an accident.
