The Loaded Door is a 1922 American silent Western film directed by Harry A. Pollard and starring Hoot Gibson.
The new hands seem to be trafficking in booze and narcotics under the guise of raising cattle.
The new boss of the ranch has designs on Molly, and tells her that he will assist in freeing her brother Joe (Sutherland), who is in prison charged with murder, if she goes with him across the border.
Bert learns of this ruse, tricks the smugglers, and rides to Molly's rescue.
The smugglers are rounded up, and Joe is freed, leaving Bert and Molly to plan their new home.
