Synopsis
This rollicking farce of the Old West unfolds in Miss Katy's saloon. In a fast-paced poker game, to the accompaniment of rinky-tinky piano renditions by barmaids Sally and Flo, a gamblin' woman by the name of Lou produces "one big ace from some secluded place" to win the deed to Katy's establishment. With the help of "an eastern dude who's a rude, crude, prude" and Little Nell ("pure and sweet can't be beat; we'll let her help when we cheat"), Katy and her cohorts retrieve the business.
