Plot
As described in a film magazine review,[4] Joyce, a government agent, is imprisoned by a gang of smugglers in their ranch house along the Mexican boarder. Juan de Dios O'Rourke, another government agent posing as being half-Spanish and living in Mexico, is commissioned to rescue Joyce. He meets Phoebe, Joyce's daughter, who purposefully drives an automobile down a cliff. She feigns unconsciousness following the accident and is carried into the house by the smugglers. Eventually Juan and Phoebe, with the aid of the cook, escape with Joyce to a deserted house. The smugglers follow, but United States troops arrive to save the day. Juan and Phoebe wed.
