Visiting an old friend, Nevada (Buster Crabbe) and sidekick Weary (Syd Saylor) take jobs on a ranch rounding up horses.

But the buyer turns out to be Les Setter (Harvey Stephens), a man Nevada earlier caught robbing a bank.
Nevada knows Setter is a fake but bides his time waiting for Setter to make his move.
Setter knows this and Nevada soon finds himself in jail when Setter frames him for rustling.
