Eight-year-old twin girls Jessica and Susie Martin (Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen) live with their father, Stephen (Patrick Cassidy), in Philadelphia.

They have a dream about a man saying, "This town ain't big enough for the three of us" and having a shootout but argue who makes their move first.

One day, they receive a letter from their late mother Sarah's godmother, Natty (Phillips), inviting them to a dude ranch.

The girls try to ask their dad's uptight boss, "The Dragon Lady" (Ms. Plaskett), for his vacation time, only to get him fired.

As they finish reading, they see smoke and start running towards it, thinking it is another fire, but find it is Bart burning papers.

He tears up the letter and snarls, "This ranch ain't big enough for the three of us", which brings the girls to a conclusion that he was the one in the dream.

That night, the girls ride off to Denver to convince Leo McRugger, the businessman to whom Bart is selling the ranch, to not go through with the deal.

It is fixed up with the help of George, Stephen, Natty, the girls, and Laura Forrester (Greene), Steven's girlfriend.

Variety said that "young female viewers will no doubt identify with these resourceful sisters, but, for others, the helming is generally routine and doesn’t light up the family/juvenile market.
