A young woman writer (Nell Shipman), seeking atmosphere, arrives in Mexico, where she stays with her father's friend Sid Bickley at his gold mine, the Blue Lotus. There she meets Bill (Bert Van Tuyle), who gives her his dog Laddie for company. Soon, however, the notorious bandit Gorgez attacks the mine, leaving Sid unconscious and taking the gold and the girl with him. Meanwhile, Bill, on his way to pay a call, encounters his dog bearing a note on his collar which the girl wrote during the ordeal. Speeding off in his Maxwell car to the Mexican's hideaway, he arrives just in time to save the girl's honor, and after a struggle they escape. The bandits follow them in a chase across rugged terrain, but in the end they are defeated. <56mn 33s>
