To trick Ma and Mary Winters into selling their rundown ranch, which will be in the path of a future railroad, Underwood engages Keno Creager to impersonate Jimmy Winters, who ran away from his mother and sister many years earlier. Lucky Lorimer, a horsetrading drifter, and Larry Withers, a waiter in Boss Wheeler's saloon, discover the plot, Larry reveals that he is Jimmy, and they both head for the Winters place. They find Creager already there doing his dirty work, and they cannot prevent the signing of the deed, but Lucky (by means of a fake murder charge) tricks Creager into denying that he is Jimmy Winters. Happily reunited, the Winters add Lucky to their number.
