Parmalee sends Reese, Chad and Joe undercover, disguised as prospectors, to find Lazyfoot and his gang. In Aggie's Saloon they meet Grubby Sully who says he needs partners to get to his goldmine because it's in territory controlled by Lazyfoot. Chad and Joe lead the local sheriff to believe Reese is a wanted sheep rustler, giving them time to ride off with Grubby while Reese is locked up. The three are captured by Lazyfoot and Reese tracks them down. He frees only Grubby who he hopes will lead him to the gold mine. Reese returns to free Chad and Joe and foil Lazyfoot's plan to ambush Captain Parmalee and his reinforcements with a gattling gun. He then heads back to the mine. Chad and Joe get credit for the rescue and Parmalee thinks Reese was out looking for gold the entire time. Grubby eludes them and waves goodbye from the distance on the way to his real mine.
