Bob Steele faces a race against time when a smallpox plague threatens the territory and the only serum that can stop it becomes the target of criminals. When the unscrupulous Doc Halsey—a disgraced former medical student now patching up outlaws—steals the serum to hold it for ransom, Bob must fight his way through a ruthless gang to deliver the precious medicine to those who desperately need it. With bullets flying and outlaws closing in from all sides, the fearless straight-shooter discovers that some enemies can't be stopped with guns alone.
Bob Steele travels east with Colonel Tucker and the prized racehorse Blue Lightning, hoping to win the Gold Cup—but the rejected gambler Tad Hart and his hired thugs won't stop at sabotage to keep the horse from the finish line. With danger closing in from every direction, Bob must rely on his wits and quick draw to protect his friend's dream and survive Hart's escalating threats.
Bob Steele reckons a cowboy needs a pet to fit in at the bunkhouse, so he heads to town determined to find something truly outstanding. At an auction, he spots a genuine talking parrot and bids his entire bank account to win it—only to discover the parrot's been pulling a fast one on him the whole time.
