Dead Shot Dick enters and protects the easterners. Dead Shot Dick is a gunman at loggerheads with the law's forces. Sheriff Gunning posts a notice offering a reward of $1,000 for his capture. Dick sees the notice and compels the sheriff to eat it. As monarch over all he surveys, Dick has no hesitancy in interrupting the spooning match of Jessie and Jerry, the latter having made quite a hit with the pretty easterner. Jerry is peeved and sets out for revenge. The Goodriches leave for home and invite Dick to visit them. Dick accepts and arrives in the east a few days later with Jerry on his trail. Both pay marked attention to Jessie. Dick orders Jerry out of the way. Jerry refuses and in the tilt that follows the lordly one is vanquished. The doctor is called to attend Dick. In the midst of the treatment Dick revives, grabs his brace of six shooters, and shoots up the room, Jerry, coming in for an extraordinary share of attention in commemoration of past performances. Dick compels him to swap clothes, then continues on his rampage. At the opportune moment Jerry, who has followed, applies a club to the head of Dick, who falls into dreamland. In Dick's pocket Jerry finds a copy of the notice offering the $1,000 reward for Dick's capture. With visions of the big reward, Jerry ties a rope to the ankles of the gunman, drags him to jail and turns him over to the authorities, who pay the $1,000. The sight of the $1,000 leaving his hands is too much for the judge, however, and he arrests Jerry on the charge of carrying concealed weapons, convicts him, deprives him of his hard-earned reward and then puts him in a cell with Dick.
