The Extra Seven Synopsis
Leo is suitor for the hand of Polly, daughter of mother Martin who owns Double D Ranch where the "puncher" is employed. There is also a brother, with a gambling habit, whose welfare the prospective brother-in-law takes seriously. He watches a game from a bunk and sees a card shark (Bud Osborne) fill a poker hand by drawing an extra card to make a "straight flush" from his pistol pouch. But that shows up two sevens of the same suit. When it comes to cashing the chips, there ensues a fight, in the midst of which Polly appears and mistakes her fiancé's part in the argument, whereupon she accuses him of encouraging her brother's gambling habit. There follows another fight in which the brother is seemingly killed and the partners in the game plan to throw the guilt upon the innocent puncher. Rapid and interesting action develops, embracing some hard riding by all and quick thinking on the part of Polly. However, she learns the truth about the situation in time to stop a proposed lynching and identifies the guilty ones by most convincing evidence.
The Night Riders Synopsis
In Alberta, Canada, a Cornish emigrant unmasks a rustler posing as the girl's "blind" father.
"The Extra Seven" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Night Riders" offers its own unique cult appeal.
