[edit]

Rancher John Barrabee is upset his daughter doesn't want to stay in the West; instead, she is a New York City nightclub singer who is engaged to marry shady playboy Rollo Bingham. Travelling back west, Barrabee's plane makes an emergency landing in Nevada and awaits another airplane that brings them parts needed to repair the aircraft. Barrabee wanders off and meets trail boss Roy Rogers and the Sons of the Pioneers. Happy he is back roping and riding with fellow cowboys, he misses his plane's departure, and joins Roy in droving cattle.

After the cattle drive, Barrabee discovers he is presumed dead as his plane crashed with no survivors. Barrabee uses the opportunity to get Roy to straighten out his daughter.
