Greaser Pete, the leader of the smugglers, makes love to Molly, a pretty senorita. Molly seeks and is given protection by the custom-house officials. By an accident the cannon at the custom house is discharged and the ball strikes Pete's wife and knocks her down. The smugglers swear vengeance, and Molly overhears their threats and goes to warn the customs men. She's then captured by the smugglers, who tie her to the cannon, light the fuse, and leave her. Pretzel and Heinze are then captured by the smugglers. They are let over a cliff by a rope, which is tied to a tree at the top of the cliff, Under the rope fire is started, and the custom men are warned that when the rope burns through they will be dashed to pieces. But Pete's wife finds Molly tied to the cannon and releases her. Just as she does, the cannon goes off and knocks the smugglers over the cliff, and they land on the bottom on the other custom men. The rope burns through, and Pretzel and Heinze fall to the bottom, landing on the smugglers, who are now overpowered. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
