 Harriet Highgrade (CayCee Cox) and her husband, Marshal Henry Highgrade, owned a gold mine in the tiny town of Slim Pickins, Wyoming ... until something very bad happened to Henry. A big rock rolled (or was it pushed) from the ledge above the entrance to his mine and crushed poor old Henry to death. The task of investigating the crime falls to Oliver Upright (Kellan Swanson), the Deputy Marshal, who is also in love with Harriet's daughter Demura (Lizzi James). But Rock Bottom (Owen Accord) and his accomplice Penelope Prude (Rachel Swanson) have other plans. Can anyone save the save the day?
