Johnny joins a medicine show and attempts to comply with his wealthy father's demand that he earn $5,000 before he receives any more family money, while Anne, upset at Johnny's lackadaisical attitude, is courted by a crook who, learning she will inherit a fortune if she is married by a certain time, impersonates a famous author. When Johnny learns of Anne's impending marriage, he hurriedly steals a car, impersonates a minister, and arrives just in time to stop the marriage and expose the fraud. After Johnny marries Anne and receives a $5,000 reward from her executor, he rushes to his father's lawyer, and after being admonished to "take it easy," Johnny replies, "There ain't no such word."
