Straight Arrow encounters a visiting Cheyenne girl named Dawn Girl and falls in love with her, but discovers she is a member of a rival raiding party led by Red Hawk. When Spotted Elk attempts to court Dawn Girl by testing her with challenges, he is accidentally struck by a knife. The next day, a wounded stranger arrives in town reporting that hostile Comanche have captured a woman and are holding her at their headquarters. Straight Arrow and the Comanche work together to rescue the captive, using smoke signals to communicate with her father and coordinate a rescue. By nightfall, Walt Jarvis, a gun-slick observing from nearby, learns that the girl is safe and the Comanche are protecting her, realizing this may be an opportunity for him.
