In jest, Tom and Florence flirt too much to suit Billy, and he leaves in a huff. Florence regrets her actions and Tom promises to bring Billy back. He returns to his rooms, where he is confronted by a revolver and a very stem looking Billy behind it. Tom orders him to put it down and refusing, they fight, in which Tom is victorious. Billy apologizes and they are friends once more, and pledge their friendship with a drink in the town dance hall. Anita, a Spanish girl of the town, uses her black eyes so successfully on Billy that he soon forgets Florence, and despite the pleadings of Tom, is bound to marry her. Tom, knowing her for what she is, resolves to show her up to Billy. On arriving at Billy's room, where they have gone after leaving the saloon, Anita asks Billy for a drink of water. Seeing his chance, Tom takes a roll of bills from his pocket, and proceeds to count, watching Anita covertly. The money talks very loud to Anita and she forgets, in turn, Billy for Tom. He takes her in his arms just as Billy returns with the water. Infuriated he tries to draw his gun, but Tom has him covered, and forcing him to stay, he kisses Anita and they leave. Arriving at the corral instead of putting Anita on a horse as she expects, Tom orders her away. She demurs, but Tom is of pretty stern stuff, and she goes her way, while Tom returns to Billy and explains his actions. Billy, overcome with remorse, begs Tom to "fix it" with Florence to forgive him. Tom promises to do his best. Going to Florence's home, he persuades her to walk with him. She wonderingly consents, and they arrive at the corral, where Billy is waiting. Everything is forgotten and the boys are "Pals" once more. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
