A stranger, Bob Vincent, appears in town and, after becoming friendly with Carmen, inexplicably joins Kilgore's gang, passing himself off as a forger. Kilgore and Vincent plan to rob a mail train, but, just before the appointed time, Kilgore kidnaps Carmen, and Vincent, who tries to help her, is knocked out in a fight. Kilgore ties him to a handcar and sends it down the line toward an oncoming train, but Vincent frees himself and stops the train, thus averting the robbery.
