Summary
A mute yearning ricochets across sun-cracked corrals when tongue-tied cowpoke Aleck nurses a love he can’t articulate; swaggering foreman Red Saunders, equal parts cupid and confidence man, saddles up to town and strong-arms Lindy—presumed target of Aleck’s bashful ardor—into a dusty buggy back to the spread. But the Fates, sporting spurs, throw the narrative: Ah Sing, the ranch’s wry Cantonese factotum, pinches every stitch of denim and flannel, pawning threads for poker coin, leaving the bunkhouse a half-naked posse of goose-pimpled vaqueros who thunder through sagebrush in union-suit disarray. The chase climaxes in a kerosene-lit gambling den where roulette wheels spin like dervishes, clothes change hands like contraband scripture, and Red realizes Lindy is the wrong postcard from Cupid’s catalogue; yet serendipity, that flirt, flips embarrassment into betrothal when Lindy, charmed by the whole rodeo of errors, accepts Red’s impromptu ring of barbed wire and stardust.
Synopsis
Bashful ranch hand Aleck is in love. To help him get his girl, Red Saunders goes to town and convinces Lindy, whom Red thinks is the object of Aleck's affections, to come to the ranch. Meanwhile, Ah Sing, "the ranch Chinaman," steals the cowboys' clothes and pawns them. Red and Lindy meet with Ah Sing and the pursuing, half-clad cowboys at a gambling hall and regain the lost clothing. Red discovers he has brought the wrong girl, but the situation brightens when she consents to his proposal.
