In this adventure, a convict gets released and immediately begins looking for the $250,000 in loot a fellow inmate hid thirty years ago before coming to prison. While he looks, the ex-con is pursued by a strange family who wants a piece of the action. He is also accompanied by his new love, a waitress. The explorers are terribly disappointed when they learn that the gold is now covered by Lake Mead. The family is so angry that they try to kill the lovers. Fortunately, a sheriff intervenes before it's too late.
