A dubious old friend of Jeff, Kevin O'Malley, suggests to the cash-strapped detective that they steal old bank notes being taken on a lorry to be incinerated. The money is stolen but neither Kevin nor Jeff have got it and Jeff gets arrested as the chief suspect. The actual thieves are two women who perform a stage act. They plan to fly the money out to France but Marty uses his skills to ensure that their plane lands exactly where the police are waiting to arrest them.
