Plot
Twin sisters, Jenny and Sally travel the American Old West with their grandfather and his medicine show (in the Italian version, the girls are traveling with their uncle). They sing and dance and show off their horse riding and sharp-shooting skills. Their grandfather has a bit of a gambling problem. It causes his demise when he is accidentally and fatally shot during a poker game, but he was left holding the winning hand. Thus the twins inherit the ranch their grandfather had won. Some bad hombres want to take the ranch away from the girls. Jimmy (In the Italian dubbed version Jimmy is known as Ringo) and Robert are two good guys who come to the aid of the twins.
