After making a wrong turn on their way to a state fair performance, the Lennon Sisters' car gets stuck in a mudhole on a desolate road during a storm.

Meanwhile two men have towed the Lennons' car to a hidden room in the barn of the farm where the girls are staying. The sisters find themselves in the middle of a stolen car operation that involves two crooks who are blackmailing the woman and her son.
