Charles rescues Vera, a showgirl in a visiting Wild West Show, from a runaway, and his uncle takes advantage of this to plot with the show's manager to get Charles and Vera married the next day. At a birthday-eve party that night rough riders from the show kidnap Vera and are pursued and beaten up by Charles, who guards the girl through the night in his sister's bungalow. Shelby, her guardian, forces Charles to marry Vera, and then Brady and Spragg tell Charles he's lost his inheritance by so doing. The supposed minister who performed the "marriage" removes his disguise, revealing himself as Vera's brother. Charles gets the estate and marries Vera after all. Written by
