The 12th and last entry in a two-reel series under the series title of "Fighting Hearts": Sally Tracy and Harry Grayson, reporter and editor on the Oceanville Journal, are sent to pay back a large sum of money the newspaper had borrowed from the Hillvale bank. They are ambushed by Tod Raleigh and his henchman, Grogan, and Harry is knocked out, while Sally and the money are taken on board a tramp steamer in the bay. But, once on board, Tod and Grogan are double-crossed by the ship's captain, who makes them crew members while he takes charge of Sally and the money. When Tom and Jerry, the Journal's printers, come to her rescue, he also shanghais them. Harry follows, by motorboat, with the Oceanville police, and, once on deck, finds the always-spunky Sally more than holding her own in a spirited battle with the captain and his crew. The villains are captured, the money is returned, and The End finds Sally and Harry heading for marriage.
