Colorado Jim, who has just become a millionaire, meets in New York young Englishman Reggie Featherstone, with whom he eventually goes to London.

After she has depleted his money, he takes her back to Colorado, and they are followed by Philip Meredith, who also loves her. In evicting three men from his ranch, Jim is wounded, and while nursing him to health Angela finally realizes her love for him.
Blackmail Synopsis
Confidence artist Flossie Golden attempts to fleece foolish but wealthy James Venable with a breach-of-promise suit. Venable's shrewd attorney, Richard Harding, outwits Flossie by proposing that she marry Venable and live on an allowance of $3,000 per year. Flossie is determined to get even with Harding for ruining her plans. In an attempt to con him, she poses as Innocence Page, but falls in love and marries him instead. Larry, Flossie's former accomplice, endeavors to blackmail her with her errant past, but Harding is already cognizant of the facts and Larry fails.
"Colorado Pluck" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "Blackmail" offers its own unique cult appeal.
