Her partners, secretly in league with Abbott, sabotage the circus to force Nancy to sell the ranch; instead, she goes there to live.

    "The Three Mesquiteers" are quietly going about their business when struggling circus owner "Nancy" (Carol Landis) shows up at their ranch thinking it is her's (she's gone and got the address wrong!). In correcting this error, the boys discover that her partners and a local bigwig are trying to swindle her out of her inheritance by offering a pittance for her late grandfather's ranch! Why do they want to so badly? Might there be gold in them thar' hills (or oil under them)? It's quite a rollicking ride, this film - plenty of chemistry on screen between John Wayne and Landis, and the story has a few fun plot twists that draw his partners in crime Max Terhune ("Lullaby") and Ray Corrigan ("Tuscon") as her disaster almost becomes their's' too! We've even got a gorilla as well - guess who? All good fun.

A cattle-vs.-sheepman feud loses Connie Dickason her fiance, but gains her his ranch, which she determines to run alone in opposition to Frank Ivey, "boss" of the valley, whom her father Ben wanted her to marry. She hires recovering alcoholic Dave Nash as foreman and a crew of Ivey's enemies. Ivey fights back with violence and destruction, but Dave is determined to counter him legally... a feeling not shared by his associates. Connie's boast that, as a woman, she doesn't need guns proves justified, but plenty of gunplay results.
