Roy and the sheriff are hot after the Sellers Gang. The three gang members are. Mart, Lefty, and Barney (Harry Lauter, Rusty Westcoatt, Dub Taylor). They kidnap Pat and Nellybelle and take them to their hideout. Pat has been rehearsing his role as Hamlet for a play to finance a new church and keeps spouting Shakespeare. The outlaws see a newspaper which reports that Lefty has inherited a million dollars from his uncle. They decide to have Pat impersonate Barney to get the money. None of them can show their face in town. Pat refuses to help them until they capture Dale. Now Barney will keep Dale prisoner while Mart and Lefty take Pat into town to get the money. Can Roy and the Sheriff stop the outlaws and rescue Dale? Will Pat get to do his turn at Hamlet? One thing is sure. "The play's the thing."
