The town of Cactus was like many other Western towns, but progressive enough to have a woman as the teller at the bank. As she goes about her duties, she overhears a plot to rob the bank. With the sheriff out of town, her only hope is to try to reach the Cisco Kid. Outside town, Cisco relaxes as Pancho plays with the squirrels. Always willing to help a damsel in distress, Cisco rushes to town, but suspects there is more to her distress than just reporting a bank robbery.
Alice Barton races into town with Cisco, and it appears that trap for the robbers goes off well. Cisco recognizes one of the captured banditos, but will the captured man’s threats against Alice carry any weight? It looks like a quick and happy end to a bad situation when the sheriff returns to take his prisoner to the penitintiary. Bad guy Hastings makes his break, and then heads to town to get his revenge on Alice.
The audio pauses a bit for the mid commercial break, give it just a bit to pick up again to see how the exciting story ends up.
Cisco knows all the tricks as well, and hasn’t strayed far from town. He turns out to be the man on the spot when he finds the sheriff in bad shape on the trail, rides back to protect Alice, but the bad guys are waiting for him. Will their ambush succeed in stopping Cisco? There’s sure to be some exciting narrow escapes, fist fighting, and say it ain’t so! There may just be some mushy stuff at the end. Cover your eyes and ears little kiddies.
