Cody who has appeared in many underworld pictures for Universal, enacts the role of a young millionaire who is bored with living and is ready for anything that will offer excitement. His desire for anything to break the monotony leads him to answer a newspaper advertisement dropped by a beautiful girl whom he has rescued from a runaway horse.
