A rich Yank docks his yacht in Mexico and steps
ashore for adventure. Meanwhile, Conchita, the local beauty,
accepts an engagement ring from the hot-headed Martino, who promises
to kill any man who gains her favors. Conchita already has
another boyfriend, Ferdinand the bull fighter. They conspire
to find a patsy; she'll pretend he's her new boyfriend, Martino will
kill him and be arrested, and she'll be free to be with Ferdinand.
Their mark is none other than our rich gringo who's already fallen
for Conchita. He's an innocent abroad; what chance does he
have?
