While the boys of the Diamond A are in the frontier town of Coma celebrating one of the regular pay days, a telegram is brought into the saloon for Edward G. Landers. After quite a bit of figuring, "Sky High" finally states that he was given that name, but that he had almost forgotten it. The dispatch announced that "Sky's" uncle, in the east, has passed away, leaving him the bulk of a large fortune. A provision to the will states that he must reside in and take personal care of the estate for one year. "Sky" does not like the idea of going alone and decides to take the entire bunch of his pals along with him. Allen Landers is the other heir of the uncle, and he will benefit if "Sky" fails to carry out the mandates of the will. Landers decides to work "Sky" out of his rightful inheritance, and in accordance with this scheme, enlists the services of Goldie Le Croix, an actress. Goldie is to win the heart of the simple Westerner, and then throw him over. They hope that the disappointment will cause "Sky" to return west without complying with the will. When Goldie is presented, the girl makes quite a dent in "Sky's" impressionable heart. He finds himself growing deeply in love with her. "Sky's" impetuous wooing has quite won Goldie and when he suggests that they "hitch up" she agrees. At last, the day of a reception arrives and the guests assemble. Landers calls Goldie aside, and tells her that she has done her part fine, and now is the time to quit. "Sky" by accident overhears their talk. He quits the spot in a rage and fails to hear Goldie tell her cousin that she has played too long and now "Sky" is willing to have her and she will gladly take him, as it will be for love. Determined to get even with the plotters, "Sky" confronts the cousin and their argument leads to a fight. In the melee, Goldie is struck with a flying missile and rendered unconscious. When Goldie revives she finds herself in "Sky's" arms.
