Upon reaching a town, a gang of crooks dressed in 19th century cowboy gear are in the midst of a robbery. Changing into his Vigilante duds, he and Stuff pursue them, but their cycle is overturned. He later uncovers a plot by publicity manager Matt Paulin to smuggle forty pure-bred Arabian steeds, worth a million dollars, along with the movie's regular remuda.
