 Haley Davis (Ethan Laidlaw) wants the ranch owned by Jerry Hickson (Virginia Brown Faire), and has hired gunmen to shoot at and run off her cowhands, so Jerry has turned the ranch into a Sanitarium caring for invalid and ailing patients. Foreman Ben Brown(Ben Corbett) sends for his friend Bud Regan (Jack Perrin)to come help. In town Bud sees that wanted outlaw Texarkana Pete, aka as The Candy Kid (Blackjack Ward)has been captured by a Deputy (Jim Corey),and learns that Davis has sent for Pete to join his gang. Since Davis has never seen Pete, Bud takes his clothes and letter and joins the Davis gang posing as Pete.
