Roving young prospector Jim Farrell is caught cheating at cards in the "Red Dog" saloon, and after an exchange of shots with his accuser, he escapes into the desert, where he wanders about aimlessly all night, seriously wounded and without water. At sunrise Wallace, from his shack, sees the solitary form stagger and fall in the desert. Suspicious of every stranger, Wallace cautiously approaches Farrell, and finding him half dead, takes him back to the shack, where Nan cares for him. She falls in love, but Farrell very lightly regards the devotion of the uncultured mountain girl. Provisions run low, and Nan is the only one who can go to town to secure a fresh supply. She accomplishes her errand and Farrell sees in an old newspaper wrapped about her purchases a picture of Wallace, and a notice of the reward offered for information leading to his capture. One night, while Wallace and Nan are sleeping, Farrell seeks the sheriff, to whom he betrays his benefactor and guides a posse back to the mountain hut, where Wallace and his daughter make a desperate resistance. Wallace is killed and Nan is forced to surrender. The sheriff and his men bury her father's body, after which she returns to the cabin. She sees her father's gun upon the floor and a solitary bullet, which she picks up and places in the rifle. She makes a detour across the hills and catches sight of the departing posse, with Farrell trailing in the rear. She takes aim and, with her last shot, kills the treacherous ingrate.
