Synopsis:
Stretch Skinner is hired to escort the three spoiled children of millionaire J. Huntington Ives to Africa to recover some jewels. Wildcat joins the expedition, suspecting that Stretch will need his help. Shortly after they arrive the party is attacked by a leopard. Wildcat wrestles the leopard, but then the group is captured by natives.

Stretch is honored by the chief, but he inadvertently condemns the others to be thrown in a snake pit. Wildcat gets them out, but Stretch offends the natives again. The group makes an escape with the jewels and returns safely to America. The spoiled children are changed by the experience which pleases Ives.
