Perkins will not permit any love making between the girls and the cowboys, the most ardent of whom is "Alkali" Ike. "Alkali" likes Jennie, and the other boys each have their individual sweetheart. Perkins drives into town one day with his daughters and while he is busy at the general store, the boys capture the girls and soon a series of tete-a-tetes are under headway. Perkins discovers the situation, and leads all his daughters back home by the ears. The boys all arrange to elope with the girls. Under cover of darkness, the various elopements begin, and all the girls get safely away with their beaux except "Alkali" and Jennie. Jennie has just sent him back up on the roof of the ranch house porch for her luggage when old Perkins appears on the scene in his night-clothes and carrying a shotgun. "Alkali" is quickly chased to the tall timber, and Perkins loads Jennie into a rig and dashes away up the road toward the parson's house. He arrives just in time to be too late, for his daughters are all married and he is forced to wryly give them his blessing, while miserable Jennie sits alone on the rig and blubbers for her lost "Alkali."
