He invites Frenchy to the ranch for dinner, then offers him work as a cowhand, which Frenchy accepts. Bess, Nash's other daughter, befriends Frenchy and arouses the jealousy of Logan, the ranch foreman, who is in love with her. The punchers ridicule the stranger for his polite manner and style of dress, and make things as hard as possible for him. Growing more jealous every day, Logan runs Frenchy's horse away from the ranch and dares him to ride an outlaw, hoping to see him injured and show him up before the others. Frenchy masters the horse, and in a quarrel with Logan shows that he is quicker on the draw than the foreman. The boys go to town to attend a dance and Frenchy buys some new clothes for it. In the saloon he meets Logan, who takes exception to his style of dress and in a quarrel which follows, shoots at Frenchy but merely grazes his check. To show his own marksmanship Frenchy shoots out a couple of the lights and then returning Logan's gun to him, dares him to draw. The foreman's nerve fails him and he leaves the saloon, where Frenchy is making friends with the boys with his gameness. On the way back to the ranch the boys leave Frenchy asleep at the watering hole, thinking to play a joke on him, but Frenchy's horse wanders away, and to turn the joke on the boys he walks back to town and puts up at the hotel. The horse reaches the ranch riderless and Nash, fearing for Frenchy's safety, orders a search. After two days he rides into town to enlist the sheriff's aid in locating Frenchy and finds him sitting on the hotel steps enjoying a cigarette and the joke. Angered, Nash discharges him and orders him to return to the ranch for his packs. On the way home Nash stops for his daughter, May. and during the trip she becomes very ill. The ranch is reached and Logan is sent for a doctor but finds him gone. Arriving at the ranch French learns of May's illness; he takes a medical kit from his packs and saves her life. Ashamed of his rudeness, Nash entreats Frenchy to make the ranch his home, but he refuses and rides away. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
