Joe is on a stage that is held up by Indian Pete's gang and their only intent seems to have been trying to kill a 9 year-old girl passenger. The stage arrives in Laredo and the girl is dismayed to find out it doesn't continue to San Remo where she is going to live with her Uncle Charley. Reese, Chad and Joe go to draw their pay but are overdrawn so Parmalee gives them $5 each as a loan. They lose it at the saloon playing double or nothing so the girl, Gussie Smith, offers to pay them to take her to San Remo. Since they are broke on their weekend off they accept the girl's $10 offer. Captain Parmalee has also warns them to be on the lookout for a character who is passing bad checks. They arrive in San Remo, a near ghost town, and Chad goes to ask the sheriff where Charley Smith's place is. The sheriff turns out to be a gunfighter who murdered one of Chad's friends years ago. After being kicked off the land by "Uncle Charley" and shot at the Rangers discover the real Uncle Charley is dead and there is oil on the land. Chad faces the Sheriff, Uncle Charley's killer, in a gunfight. Back in Laredo Gussie is told she will be the richest lady in the Southwest. She rewards the Rangers with silver saddles. Unfortunately, the checks she paid with won't be good for 12 years when she reaches 21 and Parmalee credits the expenditures to their future pay. Reese, Chad and Joe grab the saddles and head for the saloon to play a little double or nothing.
