Johnny's young Indian friend, Swift Deer, who idolizes JT, is appointed Chief for the next month. Johnny rides out, but vows to secretly see Swift Deer has no trouble. Two would-be chiefs try to assassinate the young chief, but JT lassoes them for the dark. When a maiden falls into the river, Swift Deer dives to the rescue, but JT must keep the villains from interfering - underwater.
