Bart is a passenger on a stagecoach wrecked by Mexican bandits. They are in the Arizona desert, and it is hot. They run out of water. The bandits want money taken out of Mexico by Whitney Blake as Letty French. Gerald Mohr is Ballero, a Mexican trying to get next to Letty. Bart intervenes and punches Ballero because he took his horse. The passengers take refuge from the bandits in a ruin, and Bart looks up at the blazing sun. It will go to 110 degrees or hotter. We see a Joshua tree, a symbol of the desert. Letty was a dance hall girl in Mexico City, and there is a lot of drama. Bart devises an explosive, which seems to magically kill the bandits. Bart and Ballero ride off together.
