- After a tornado scatters the herd, they are a 100 head short. They learn a man running an orphanage sold them to the local banker. Realizing the banker is the guilty party, Favor decides to teach him a lesson and recover some of his money.
- A tornado scatters Favor's cattle herd. All are rounded up except 100 head that the children of an orphanage collected, and which the head of the orphanage, Smithers (Eddie Bracken), innocently sold for the giveaway price of $300 to the local banker, Randolph (Everett Sloane), who knew that the cattle were illegally rounded-up. Randolph sold the cattle to an honest trail boss for $3000. In a complicated scheme to con $3000 back from the banker, Favor has Wishbone and Mushy, using aliases, join the orphanage as volunteers. Favor plants 200 head of cattle near the orphanage to be "discovered" by Wishbone and the kids. Smithers and Wishbone sell the cattle to Randolph for $3000, Wishbone signing the bill of sale with his alias name. Wishbone afterward convinces Smithers to let Wishbone go off with the $3000 to find the guy who "lost" the 200 head, and Favor descends with the sheriff to claim the 200 head since Randolph is holding a false bill of sale. So the upshot is: Favor got $3000 for the loss of the original 100 head; Smithers still has his $300 for the orphanage; and Randolph is out $300 (the $3000 he originally got for selling the 100 head to the innocent trail boss, less $300 he had given Smithers for the 100 head, less the $3000 he gave Wishbone-Smithers for the 200 head).—chipe
- A tornado forces the men to scatter the herd. After gathering the strays, they are still 100 head short. Rowdy and Quince find a few and learn Edgar Allan Smithers who runs an orphanage on his dead brother's ranch sold the 100 head the kids found to the local banker Calvin Randolph for $3 per head. At the bank Favor learns the banker had made up papers to cover the illegal transaction and has sold the cattle to Frank Travis who knew the cattle had belonged to Favor for $3000. The Sheriff aware of what happened and Randolph's past transgressions turns a blind eye as Favor schemes to recover his losses by "losing" another 200 which Randolph is forced to buy from George Haggerty (Wishbone) for $3000 which Wishbone takes. After the sale Favor reclaims his cattle and Randolph's paper he made out with Wishbone's "X" becomes a costly lesson as Smithers didn't sell the cattle and Wishbone has disappeared.—Anonymous
