Summary:
Rita, an Irish-Mexican girl oversees a large ranch near the Mexican border. Rita's brother is suspected of being "The Kinkajou," a notorious bandit. On the trail of the Kinkajou, an undercover Texas Ranger falls in love with Rita, much to the chagrin of a wealthy but despotic landowner. The villain arranges to make it appear that the Ranger is the Kinkajou, prompting Rita to consent to marriage with the cad in order to save her lover's life. The true identity of the Kinkajou is revealed at a lavish costume party, filmed in early Technicolor
