When Chad escorts Billy Harker to Austin for trial, Billy’s girlfriend Laurie ambushes him and Billy gets away. Chad sneaks back to Laredo in his underwear to get clothes, a new horse and a gun without anyone knowing he’s lost a prisoner. He's caught (and ragged on) by Joe & Reese. The next morning, Joe & Reese are assigned to bring in the thief who would dare steal a horse from the Rangers. The only clue to the thief’s identity - the wet socks Chad left behind. They find Chad just as Laurie (left as a decoy) is biting him in the course of a fight. The three Rangers use Laurie to find Billy & his gang but not before she leads them in the wrong direction, charms Reese into unwittingly helping her escape, knocks Reese out with a frying pan, gets the boys into a brawl with some cattle drovers, leads them on a chase using tricks to cover up her tracks and entices them into a shoot-out with the Harker gang at a mining camp. The Captain is skeptical over the coincidence that the horse thief was a member of the Harker gang who led them to the destruction of the whole gang, but as usual leaves well enough alone.

NiteOwl Review: Another of our favorite episodes: it offered humor, comradery and action and wasn't too silly. It's a must-have for a Peter Brown collector. This episode offered a little beefcake courtesy of Smith & Brown. And we have "high end" Joe being the clever one who figures how to get Laurie to lead them to the Harker gang. Sad to say, Peter Brown's chemistry with the villainess in this episode was much better than with his fiancee in the previous one. We've heard this is also one of Peter Brown's favorites.
