- El Jaguar, a bandit, rules the northern states of Mexico by fear. He demands tribute from the manager of the American oil fields, but the man, in fear of his life, resigns, and the company sends young Phil Jordan as its representative. Phil brings with him his little sister, Nancy, and, on the day of their departure, marries Beth Thomas, she agreeing to join them in Mexico shortly. El Jaguar sees Nancy and starts to make love to her, but is discovered by Phil and given a thrashing. El Jaguar leaves, vowing vengeance. He attends a wedding, seizes the bride and takes her to his home. Beth joins Phil and Nancy and one night shortly after her arrival, El Jaguar sets fire to one of the oil wells and while Phil and his superintendent, Harry Knowles, are trying to fight the flames, the bandits steal Beth, taking her before El Jaguar. Phil is also captured. The bandits, having overlooked Nancy on their first visit, are sent back to get her and the three are brought before El Jaguar. Knowles, hearing of this capture, rides to the border and secures the aid of the rangers. El Jaguar then offers Phil his choice: he can take one of the girls and go, but must leave the other one with El Jaguar. Phil cannot decide which to take, but Beth finally declares she will remain. She is taken into another room by Marie, El Jaguar's cast-off sweetheart. Phil and Nancy ride away and meet the rangers. They all dash to El Jaguar's house, and he, drunk, is trying to break through the door, but just as he is about to enter, and Beth is preparing to kill herself, the bride whom he has stolen leaps into the room and stabs him. Marie, seeing her lover dead, kills herself over his body just as Phil and Nancy run in and take Beth into their arms.
