Working as a fruit picker for wealthy citrus grower Leland Hagerman (Byron Morrow), Kimble (David Janssen)--alias "Jim Wallace"--promises his dying boss that he'll look after Hagerman's ne'er-do-well son Blaine (Ben Piazza). This proves difficult when, upon Blaine's return home, he turns out to be an arrogant leech who is universally despised by his late father's employees. Ultimately, Kimble sides with Blaine's stepmother Flo (Celeste Holm) to prevent the wastrel from illegally gaining full control of the family business.
