Summary: West portrays voluptuous Flowerbelle Lee, whose reputation is tarnished when she is seen embracing a masked bandit in her bedroom. Forced to leave town until she can prove she is respectable — and married — Flowerbelle boards a train where she meets incorrigible Guthbert J. Twillie (Fields). Believing he’s quite a catch, Flowerbelle accepts Twillie’s marriage proposal. The newlyweds stop in the town of Greasewood where Twillie’s exaggerated tales of adventures earn him the honor of becoming the sheriff of the town and bartender at “The Last Gasp” saloon. Mishaps magnify as West continues her flirtatious ways leading to one of the funniest scenes in the film — when the masked bandit visits again and he’s not at all who Flowerbelle expects.
