- Unknown to Judith Ralston, her brother Budd and his wife Vera are counterfeiters. To escape Rayban, a secret service agent, they leave Judith at a little town in Virginia. One day while out horseback riding, Judith is injured and rescued by Boone Pendleton, who takes her to his cabin. Later, she receives instructions from her brother to go to the Ralston house and destroy anything that she sees. Rayban, suspicious of the girl, wires Washington to shadow her. Meanwhile, Rayban has arrested Budd, who escapes and returns to the house where he meets Judith. Learning of her brother's true occupation, Judith extracts a promise of reform from him before he eludes the secret service agent once again. Judith then informs Boone that she had no knowledge of her brother's business, and the two are married.
- On a motor tour with her brother and his wife, Judith Ralston hires a horse and goes for a gallop. She is thrown and is injured. Boone Pendleton finds her and carries her to his cabin, the only refuge from the storm. Meantime a Secret Service officer has arrested her brother and his wife and comes in search of her. Judith learns, for the first time, that her brother is dishonest, but promises to give him her aid. There follows a chain of exciting incidents, but in the end all comes well for Judith.—Moving Picture World synopsis
