Dan Reid returns to help his Uncle Lone Ranger and Tonto in their pursuit of the Juan Branco gang. Branco robs a stagecoach and steals $2.000 from female passenger Maude Carver. But Juan likes Maude and forces her to take his serpent ring in exchange for her cash. She gives the ring to the Ranger, who believes he can use it to capture Branco and his gang. The outlaws capture Dan as Branco covets Dan's magnificent white horse, Victor. Will The Ranger and Tonto be able to find the gang's hideout? And will that ring give them the edge they need to free Dan and capture the outlaws? Nestor Paiva is completely bombastic as the whimsical Juan Branco. Lovely Sheila Ryan makes her second LR appearance, this time as Maude Carver. She also made numerous appearances with Gene Autry and was married to Autry's sidekick, Pat Buttram, from 1952 until her death in 1975.
