Clyde, Duncan Renaldo
Hoppy and his pals accompany the Grants to Saudi Arabia to buy horses. When the Karitga's have El Kader kidnap Charles Grant for ransom, Hoppy engineers his rescue. When they return to the Sheik's camp, El Kader and his men attack.
Jean Phillips plays Susan, the strong-willed blonde daughter of a horse breeder in the Old West. She mistakes Hopalong Cassidy and his partner Johnny, played by Brad King, for horse rustlers and has them arrested. After her father realizes the mistake and has the men released, Johnny decides to settle the score with Susan personally. He puts her over one knee and gives her a five-swat spanking on the seat of her jeans. Afterward, her father congratulates Johnny and tells him: "I hope you paddled her real hard!"
