Jerry Jerome, a rich young Wall Street broker, follows doctor's orders and goes West to relieve strain. He stops at the ranch of Jim Yancy, then agrees to be the maid of the farmhouse to earn his keep, because he is attracted to Yancy's daughter Ruth. After a series of stagecoach robberies by a masked man wearing a blue bandanna, Jerry, the new man in town, is suspect. When he finds a blue bandanna in Yancy's barn, he decides to investigate, and discovers that Yancy is an ex-convict being blackmailed into helping with the robberies. Jerry dresses up like the bandit to stop the stage and warn the driver of an intended robbery, but he is arrested himself. He convinces the sheriff to let him out so he can bring in the real thief. Yancy accidentally shoots his former partner Ben Cowan, who confesses to being the stagecoach robber. Jerry and Ruth marry and go to New York.
