An odd little film, crime doesn't pay you see and this hammers the message home with the biggest hammer you can imagine. Jimmy (Richard Cromwell) and Ruth (Helen Mack) are college kids who decide that working for a living is not for them and instead still $100,000 from the bank Jimmy works at, intending to sweat it out and then live on the money they have hidden away when they are released.
However detective Mike Roberts (Lionel Atwill) is after the money and arranges for the couple to get out of prison on parole so they can lead him to the money. However the trail to the money isn't that smooth, especially when Jimmy's ex-cellmate Blackie (Horace McMahon) decides he wants a cut too...
It is an interesting story with some noir touches though the story line is pretty ridiculous. The couple are given every chance to give up the money but keep doggedly on the trail even though it turns them against each other.
