Plot summary
In 1870 Jesse W. Heywood finishes dental school in Philadelphia and heads west to work as a frontier dentist. Robbers hold up his stagecoach, and a posse seizes one of them, Penelope "Bad Penny" Cushing. To stay out of prison, she agrees to hunt down a ring of gun smugglers. Because a wagon train will not take single women, she talks Heywood into a sham wedding so the two can travel with it. He believes the marriage is real.
