Shining in Spain

Erst rettet Little Joe die junge Wendy vor durchgehenden Pferden, dann verliebt er sich in sie. Auch Ben ist von dem Mädchen angetan. Aber der Bankier von Virginia City warnt die Cartwrights: Wendy sei nur eine hinterhältige Betrügerin.

Young, adoring Wendy Daniels has come to Virginia City to meet up with her father, Taylor Daniels, who has been traveling on business for the last five years. Joe is attracted to Wendy, but he faces stiff competition for her affections. She idolizes her father and cannot stop talking about his great business visions, although she has not seen him in five years. The Cartwrights realize there is something wrong when Wendy's supposedly rich father leaves her stranded in Virginia City with no money. When she is evicted from the hotel after running up a debt of $50, Joe takes her to the Ponderosa, only to have her dreams of her father shattered when he shows up flat broke.
