He is in love with Tonia, the daughter of an old sheep herder. She is a sly coquette and almost maddens Cisco by her changing moods and capricious pranks. Cisco visits the general store, takes what he wants, but pays for nothing. A crowd of rangers pursue him. One of them is shot. Later, Cisco shoots an American who has been too attentive to his girl. The sheriff, with a posse, starts in pursuit. Later, the sheriff is found stretched in the sand with a bullet hole directly in the center of his badge. Baffled and disgusted, the rangers ride away and a week later Captain Duval, Commander of the Army post, is notified that the Cisco Kid's career of crime must cease at once. The order is forwarded to Lieutenant Sundridge, a handsome young officer in command of the nearest post to the Kid's scene of crimes. In the course of his search for Cisco, Sandridge comes upon the house where Tonia lives. He is taken by the bright face and bewitching manner of the little Mexican girl and she, in turn, admires the lieutenant. After a time, she finds that a true love for the young American officer is slowly taking hold of her finer nature. Cisco has been hiding in the mountains. He comes to his sweetheart and suspects that she has ceased to love him for someone else. Then he intercepts a note that the girl is sending to the American. Cisco supplants it with one of his own writing, which reads, "He has come and suspects. To prove I am true I must ride to town in his clothes tomorrow. He will ride in mine. Come at sunrise. Kill this man that I may be thine alone." The lieutenant sets forth to kill the Kid. Nearing the house he perceives a figure emerging. He orders it to halt, and getting no answer, fires. The figure topples forward, and rushing up. Sandridge finds that he has killed his beloved Tonia. Too late, he sees through the trick of Cisco, but he swears to capture the outlaw and not to sleep or eat until he does. Then starts a chase which lasts for days. He brings Cisco back, cowed and submissive, to the sheriff, who waits with a rope. As the outlaw is being led away, Sandridge gently takes a flower Tonia had given him from his pocket and presses it gently to his lips. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
