Enos Milford breeds horses on his ranch, where his wife Cora lives, who wears the breeches, and his 9-year-elder friend Sam. Unfortunately Enos isn't a very skilled horseman, so that the horses throw him off instead. Due to this he has a hurt back, but he still believes himself to be an experienced horseman who makes lame excuses, when a horse throws him off again. In order to brake the horses properly he asks the Cartwrights for help. Little Joe takes the job, but he has some difficulties with the horses Enos already tried to break.
