Under Handicap (1917)
Greek Conniston, after living a life of ease and comfort, is forced by his millionaire father to get a job and earn his own living. While traveling West with his friend Roger Hapgood, Greek meets Argyl Crawford and, entranced by the girl, takes a job on her father's ranch. Greek's defeat of Brayley, the bully of the ranch, gains him the respect of the men. Crawford is about to erect a dam, an enterprise which will reclaim all of the land in the region, and Greek is given the chance to assist the foreman, Bat Truxton. Hapgood in the meantime works for the opposition which is trying to prevent the dam from being completed. Truxton is bought off and Greek takes over the job. He overcomes all obstacles and continues to work for the benefit of Crawford, even against his own father. As a last effort, the opposition blows up the dam, but Greek continues to work night and day, finishes the dam and wins Argyl's hand in marriage.
