Known the world over as the King of Cowboys, beloved singing Western superstar Roy Rogers portrays himself in this classic film along with Trigger, the 'smartest horse in the movies'. Roy temporarily trades in his cowboy hat for that of secret government agent during World War II when he is asked by Texas Governor Shuville (Russell Hicks) to help subdue a gang of saboteurs who are blowing up government warehouses. Coded messages are being communicate to the gang by Maurice the Mental Marvel (Gerald Mohr) under the guise of a shady mind reading act in a traveling show so it's up to Roy and his pal Frog Millhouse (Smiley Burnette) to infiltrate the gang, break the code, and put an end to their treasonous operations!
