Lawless Love

Vaudeville artist LaBelle Geraldine and her dancing partner Freddie Montgomery are stranded in Arizona when their troupe breaks up. In order to raise money Geraldine orders Freddie to impersonate masked bandit Black Jim so that she may turn him in and collect the $2000 reward. When the real Black Jim holds up her coach Geraldine believing that he is Freddie boldly pulls out her gun whereupon the bandit shoots her in the wrist and takes her to his cabin. Later Freddie too is captured but when members of the gang insult Geraldine he refuses to protect her. Gradually Black Jim falls in love with her and she comes to admire him so deeply that instead of seizing a chance to escape one night she returns to warn him of the gang's plot to kill him.
