But Scottie went missing by the time Mack returned with men to dig it up, and the treasure was never found. But Jinx, a lowlife scumbag, has recently been trying to force the M'Creas off the land, so he can grab the gold for himself!
Jinx and his men see Tony walking along with Gunner, and so they cause a landslide to try and get rid of the tough-as-nails young lady. Gunner pulls Tony into a cave beneath the hills to avoid the falling rocks. In doing so, the landslide had barricaded the entrance so they couldn't go back out, but as they explore the cave, not only do they find another way out, but the Lost Scot gold mine is before them as well!
