We find Lightning Jim and deputy Whitey Larsen riding the trail in response to a couple letters asking for help with rustlers. One is from a friend who has been shot, and though near death, wants Jim to help his son get to the bottom of the rustling gang. The other is from the mayor of Broken Horn, and accuses Jim’s friend of being the rustler. Which is it? Jim is riding in to find out.
There shouldn’t be many surprises, but the listener is privy to the rustlers making their evil plans to not only rustle, but to set up Jim’s friend Turner to take the blame. Jim has his own plan to flush out the crooks. Will the rustlers be suckered into Jim’s trap? On the trail, Jim and Whitey are ambushed, and the snipers have reason to think that Whitey has been killed.
Elsewhere, Whitey takes advantage of his situation to help Turner, and get more details on the rustler’s activity. With all the traps, bluffs, and secret behavior, who will fall prey to who?
As we head into the commercial break, and exciting conclusion, Jim is in danger of ambush, Whitey and Turner are framed for rustling, and the future looks bleak for our friends. Jim has help from an unexpected source, but can he trust it? is it just the thing that will lure Jim to the ambush, or get him out of it? Does Whitey and Turner stand a chance of getting out of their charges of rustling?
Saddle up your pony and ride with all guns blasting through the exciting conclusion of today’s western adventure, and see how justice is done at the hand of Lightning Jim Wipple and deputy Whitey Larsen.
