Arriving in the city and having settled up his employer's business, Shorty leaves to see the sights. He meets Madge, a flashy dame, and she takes him to a restaurant to dine. She and the waiters do Shorty right. They get him drunk and rob him of his wad. After shooting up the restaurant Shorty goes on his way. He gets into a fight with a party of gangsters in trying to protect Nell, a working girl, from them. This fight is witnessed by Brady, manager for Bull King, a prizefighter, and seeing in Shorty a new protégé, Brady makes him an attractive proposition. Shorty accepts and enters the ring with Kid Mason. The Kid is afraid of Shorty's punch and his manager doctors the Kid's gloves with plaster of Paris. Shorty is getting the worst of the fight when he orders the Kid's gloves examined. New gloves are ordered and Shorty delivers the Kid a knockout blow. Brady tries to persuade Shorty to stay in the business, but he says back to the ranch for him. At the railroad station he meets the Kid, who starts to jeer at him. From the back of the observation car Shorty throws his rope and lassos the Kid, and the picture finishes with the Kid dangling along after the fast-moving train.
