Synopsis
After robbing a diamond merchant, Dolly seeks refuge at the country home of "Ma" Dickenson, an elderly lady whom she recently befriended in the city. Discovering that Wetherby, the local banker, and Wadsworth, an oil promoter, are planning to steal the townspeople's savings (including "Ma" Dickenson's), Dolly sends for her two cohorts in crime, Spug and Dan, so as to beat Wetherby to the money and return it to the people. Their plan succeeds, and, while robbing the bank, Dan picks up evidence that will incriminate Wetherby. Consequently, when Detective Grogan finds Dolly and the money, he believes her story and lets them all go scot-free. Dan and Dolly, also Spug and a local girl with whom he has fallen in love, begin a new life in the country.
