In this sequel to Bob Hope's 1948 hit "The Paleface," Hope is Junior Potter, a Harvard-educated man who heads West to claim the inheritance left him by his gunslinger father, only to discover that dad left him nothing but debts. To stall the creditors, Junior says that his father had stashed away a fortune in gold somewhere in the hills, arousing the attention of curvaceous saloon owner Mike, also known as the mysterious masked bandit The Torch.
