Bart meets a gentleman after his own heart who skips town with his money, and leaves him to face a murder rap and a man-hungry female (Arlene Howell).

Bart Maverick and two of his friends are charged with murder. The town's citizens demand a confession from one of the three men, or else all three men will be prosecuted. Bart falsely confesses to the murder, but help from his friend Dandy Jim Buckley exonerates him from the crime.
