The Fighting Grin Synopsis

Billy Kennedy has bet his father, Otis Kennedy, $10,000 that he will marry his girlfriend, Margie Meredith, within the next week, even though both fathers are adamantly opposed to the union. After their first rendezvous is interrupted by the feuding fathers, the couple decide to take a train West and marry secretly on a ranch near Silverspur, Arizona. The parents discover the scheme and lock Billy into a freight car, where he dons the attire of a tramp. After being forced to exchange his clothing with a bandit, Billy finds that Margie has been forcibly married to her father's choice, milksop Harold De Vanderveer. Since the "minister" who performed the ceremony is actually the clothes-robbing bandit, however, Billy and Margie steal away to the real minister to be married. Billy wins his bet, while the two fathers finally resolve their differences.
