Sam Marvin and Ed Hanley "pike" this proceeding and ride on ahead, up the road, to await the coming of the superintendent in his auto. Jim Carter, the son of Sheriff Carter, also his deputy, observes their actions, and finds their pictures in prison records. In the interim Sam and Ed, well-muffled in their slickers, capture the coin and hide it at a road-house. The deputy tells his father his suspicions. The latter cannot arrest the men, as the superintendent cannot identify them; but he finds his son, the deputy, drinking in company with them. He raises a commotion, takes away his star, and discharges him for drunkenness. This puts him "strong" in the confidence of the desperadoes, and he rides away with them to their mountain fastness. The deputy takes advantage of Ed's absence to slip the "bracelets" on his partner, hut Jim, returning, opens fire. They leave their ex-friend for dead and ride away with the money. When he recovers consciousness, he takes up their trail and locates their quarters in a road-house. Jim has another hand-to-hand fight and bests both men, handcuffing them together. He also secures the bag of coin. When he comes back with his prisoners his father gives him his star, and then explains the joke to Sam and Ed, in the seclusion of their jail cells.
