Fair Warning

Whistling Dan Barry, a cowboy with an untamed heart and a love for all creatures, tames a beautiful wild stallion and frees a German Shephard dog caught in a steel trap. With "Black Bart" the dog following, Dan rides his new horse "Satan" home to the Cumberland ranch, where he has lived for ten years. Cumberland's daughter Kate berates Dan for staying away for so long, but nonetheless defends him when Cumberland insists that Black Bart be sent away. Cumberland relents, but explains to Kate that she should not give her heart to Dan, who has been wild himself since his family was lost in a flood ten years ago. Cumberland found young Dan roaming the wilderness alone, and he fears that Dan will never understand the treacherous ways of human beings.

Silent orders Kate to convince Dan to free Haines and threatens to kill her father if she does not succeed.

Haines, who is in love with Kate, is upset to hear that her declarations of love for him were only a ploy, but he resolves to make good by helping her and Cumberland escape. Dan enters as Haines and Silent begin a shootout, and after Silent escapes, Haines tells Dan about Kate's true feelings before he dies. Silent rides to town, where Dan has posted a sign stating that he will come for him at eleven o'clock. Dan finds Silent, and despite his attempt to che
