Slam and Shorty witness a man place a string of pearls into a woman's handbag. He then tells the owner that the woman is a thief. Slam gives the owner the true story that the woman, Lucille Danvers, was framed.

Lucille is released, but her guardian, Clayton, threatens to put her in jail if she will not sign over her inheritance to him. Slam and Shorty follow the girl and rescue her from several kidnapping attempts. They finally convince Lucille that they want to help. They then trick Clayton into confessing that he has been stealing Lucille's inheritance.
