Plot
Britton is driving off into the desert. Suddenly, he sees policeman Lumpy standing in the middle of the road and pulls over. Britton steps out of his car to ask what the problem is. He is told there are carjackers on the loose and Lumpy accuses him of stealing that car. With Britton distracted, the real crooks - Lifty and Shifty - sneak into his vehicle and drive off. Lumpy chases after them, leaving Britton stranded.

The sun beats down as Britton wanders the desert in search for help. He faints from exhaustion, but sees a strange figure on a horse in the distance. He soon wakes up in a cabin, discovering Howdy was the one who rescued him. Britton spots Lifty and Shifty on wanted posters and tells Howdy about how he ended up in this predicament. Howdy comes up with a plan to put the thieves in their place.

Lifty and Shifty drive their newly-stolen car, but stop to see something even more worth stealing: a red corvette. They make their way into the front seats of the vehicle, unaware that it was a trap. Howdy and Britton pop out from behind a nearby rock. Britton picks up his cell phone to call the authorities. Lifty and Shifty drive away, but not before Howdy lassos the vehicle.

Howdy and Britton are dragged across the road as they hang on to the rope. Lifty proceeds to cut the rope, while Shifty turns his head laughing. Not paying attention, they crash into a large cactus. The lasso rope coils itself around the cactus, tying up Lifty and Shifty. The owner of the now-demolished corvette, Squabbles, approaches in shock. But before he could complain, Lumpy arrives and mistakes Squabbles for a carjacker, so he beats him with his baton. The cactus then falls, crushing Lifty and Shifty.

Britton is later reunited with his car. He and Howdy celebrate by going for a drive. The car happened to be low on gas, which they only discover after it stops in the middle of a train track. The episode ends with a train running over them.
