synopsis
Veteran Western star Dustin Farnum "kidnaps" society girl Doris Pawn to teach her a lesson and the way of the West. She is not amused, and the whole scheme backfires when a rival, Francis McDonald, gets in on the act and kidnaps the girl for real. Director Colin Campbell had helmed the original The Spoilers (1914, starring Dustin's brother William Farnum) and worked with Tom Mix in that star's early years at Selig. Belonging thoroughly to an earlier age, Campbell watched his career collapse in the early 1920s.
