Based on true stories from the Old West, this episode depicts an adventure of a miner named Jack, who discovers a large gold nugget in the Bullfrog Mine, located in the Nevada desert.

The episode opens with Jack, played by actor Jock Mahoney, working in a dusty and dangerous mine. Jack and his partner, Kansas, are struggling to make ends meet with the little gold they have been able to mine. One day, Jack finds a huge nugget of gold that could change their luck if he can keep it secret until they could cash it out.

However, the word of the Little Bullfrog Nugget soon spreads throughout the mining town, and everyone becomes eager to know where the gold came from. Jack becomes paranoid, thinking that his partner might steal the nugget or that someone might kill him to get their hands on it.

To make matters worse, a swindler named Ramsey comes to the town, claiming to be a mining expert and offering to buy the mines for a low price. He manages to convince Kansas that the Little Bullfrog Nugget is of no value and tries to steal it from Jack.

Jack is conflicted; he desperately needs money, but he doesn't want to sell the nugget to Ramsey. He decides to travel to San Francisco with the nugget to sell it to a higher bidder. On his way to the city, he meets a young woman named Sally, who offers to help him sell the nugget.
