As described in a film magazine review,[3] Sasha Larianoff operates a blue fox farm on Rocking Moon Island, assisted by Gary Tynan. She hopes to pay off a mortgage held by trader Nick Nash with the season's receipts. Sasha's foxes disappear and so does Gary. Nash, who desires Sasha, tells her that Gary has played her falsely. However, Gary has been trapped and bound by invaders of the farm. Escaping, he finds a cavern which contain the missing fox pelts. Gary overcomes Nash, who turns out to be the leader of the bandits, in a terrific fight and wins Sasha's love.
