At Flying Heart Ranch cowboys lament a failed foot race against Centipede rivals who won their talking machine in a bet. Stover, Willie, and Carara brood over the loss while Miss Chapin and Miss Blake scheme to lure Culver Covington’s intercollegiate prowess to reclaim the Echo Phonograph, a symbol of honor. Meanwhile romance and tensions simmer among chaperon and guests as Berkele Fresno, Helen Blake, and Wally Speed enter the fray.
