Thinking to win Sunshine’s heart, he follows Tomalio’s example and plays love lyrics to his beloved. She looks upon him with cold disapproval. On his way home from one of his unsuccessful attempts to court Sunshine, he stumbles into the cave of a band of Federal spies, who have large quantities of dynamite and explosives.
