Howard Dunn and his wife Betty visit Tom and his pals, who are in camp. A bear frightens the horse Betty is driving, she loses control of the animal, which runs away. Tom, seeing Betty's danger, rescues her. Florence, riding along, sees Tom stooping over Betty and thinks he is kissing her. She will have nothing more to do with the cowpuncher. Tom and his pal spy a bear, which Tom shoots and kills. He then writes a note to Florence to the effect that he has been clawed by the bruin. Florence and her friends then start for the scene where it is believed Tom has been clawed up. As Florence takes Tom in her arms he smiles and tells her it was only a joke. Florence is again angered, but Betty's husband comes upon the scene and thanks Tom for saving his wife's life. Then it is that Florence realizes that Tom is loyal to her and they are reunited.
