Speed Creswell (Frank Merrill) and his father (Joe Girard) have a difference of opinion over the son's responsibility in this action adventure. The elder Creswell is an oil magnate who worries his son has no business sense. David Brierly (Gino Corrado) is the crooked foreman who tries to sabotage an important oil reserve and drive Crewsell out of business. Newspaper reporter Vera Wray (Virginia Warwick) uncovers the plot and notifies Speed. The good son races to prevent his father from signing over the property to scheming land grabbers in this film co-starring Ed O'Brien and Slim Cole. ~ Dan Pavlides, Rovi

This trashy, low-budget melodrama sported old-fashioned theatrics and a second-rate cast and crew -- with the exception of the editor, who happened to be future filmmaker Frank Capra. When she gets out of prison, a girl known as the Firefly (Ora Carew) decides to go straight. She gets a maid's job at the home of Lowden (Eddie O'Brien), a lumber baron, and discovers all sorts of intrigue going on. Boden (Dick La Reno) is plotting to get his hands on Lowden's valuable timber lands, while Davis (George Wellington) wants to get the family fortune by marrying Lowden's daughter, May (Helen Howell). May steals her father's papers and when the real identity of the Firefly is exposed, it is easy to pin the theft on her. But a man (Jay Morley) comes into the picture and helps the Firefly prove her innocence and uncover the guilty parties. ~ Janiss Garza, Rovi
