This time The Duke is Dare Rudd (a really gay name) and Johnny Mack Brown is his side-kick Dinkey Hooley, (also gay, which makes you wonder what the two of them were doing out there on the range) roaming cowhands who drift into Montana with the dust, where they meet Dare's cousin, who offers them jobs as cow-hands, but they pass, being lazy bastards, until Dare sees Tom's sweetheart, the busty Judy Worstall (another bad name, kind of like McGillicuty) and decides to take the job, the dirty fellow. He is put in charge of a cattle drive, replacing ranch-foreman Lynn Hardy, (who is a guy despite the girl’s name) and who is in cahoots with Bart Hammond, a seedy rustler.
