Spurred on by this headline, Neville Ne'erdowell, a smooth-talking lawyer, begins to court Prudence Wilson, heir to the Brickyard where the oil was said to be found. Prudence promptly gives Neville a valuable lesson on prudence, so he threatens to foreclose on her families Brickyard! Just as all seems lost, Jezebel Jones, the world famous actress of melodrama, steps in to save the day. Or so it seems...as it turns out, Jezebel is not as friendly as she first appears. Will Darrell Dogood, a lazy boy from Plumas, step in to save Prudence, the only woman he has ever loved? More importantly, if Darrell does do something, will he do something good? To everyone's surprise, Darrell does what is right, prompting Neville to do the same. As Jezebel's control over Neville and Darrell slips, she is forced to use ever more extreme measures in her efforts to take over the Wilson brickyard. After a thrilling chase, Jezebel is finally defeated and we discover the truth about the Great Gladstone Oil Strike! *Note, our original audience especially enjoyed the local references and the rivalries referenced as happening between Plumas, Neepawa and Gladstone.
