Shorty Williams (Moe Howard) is put in charge of his cousin's ranch, but he is more concerned with becoming a prospector. He comes across two drifters (Larry Fine, Curly Howard) who just got lucky at the roulette table and befriends them as possible investors. Shorty also meets singer Betty (Gladys Blake) and her partner (Mary Beth Hughes) and convinces them to stay on the ranch along with the vagrants. Unfortunately, Shorty's cousin, Rusty (Jay Kirby), returns early and isn't pleased.
