wins the contract. That night, while Gene manages to elude Neale's henchment, Edward locks up a process server attempting to serve a summons giving Neale all their property. Meanwhile, Gene reveals to Bernice that he knows who she is. While they are quarreling, Gene spots a fire in the barn where his horses are being kept and rushes to save them. Afterwards, Frog tells Gene that he doesn't know who knocked him out and started the blaze, but he did manage to grab the man's watch in the struggle, which can be used to identify the arsonist. The next morning, Gene enters the race with the five horses he has left. Edward tells Bernice what a fine person Gene is for helping him. Frog discovers that the watch belongs to Neale's henchman, Joe Larkins (Bud Osborne). Despite Neale's dirty tricks, Gene manages to win the race, and Edward's ranch is awarded the contract. Afterwards, Larkins reveals Neales's underhanded schemes, and Gene and Bernice put their differences behind them.
