Gypsies Gerelda, and her grandfather, Alonzo are held up by outlaes, who try to kidnap Gerelda, but Gene and Pat ride to the rescue. Judge Thaddeus Fawcett believes the gypsies can identify his nephew as one of the outlaws, but he is the outlaws leader. Gene captures one of the outlaws when they try to rustle some horses. Thaddeus then orders his men to pose as gypsies to rob stages, and plant the stolen goods at the gypsy camp. Gene sets the gypsies free when he learned that Alonzo was sent on a wild goose chase. Gene later stops a runaway wagon, and track the outlaws to Thaddeus's desk.
