Slim calls on Sophie, but has no more than gotten comfortably settled when Mustang arrives and is given all the attention. Very shortly Hiram, Sophie's father, comes downstairs and kicks Mustang out. Mustang returns with a note telling Sophie to meet him next day when the stage coach arrives and they will run away. Sophie tears up the note, but Slim pieces it together and reads it. Next day Mustang and Sophie climb aboard the stage with their suitcases. Just as they are congratulating themselves on their cleverness a bandit steps out in the road and orders the driver to stop. The driver takes to his heels, then Mustang is ordered to do likewise. The bandit then takes off his disguise and it is none other than Slim. He is now a hero in the eyes of Sophie, so they proceed to the minister's home.
