Bill explains that a planeload of replacements is due in, and if they impress the commander with the cake, they may be selected to go home. When Bill leaves them in the kitchen, Danny and Rico admit that neither one knows how to bake, and they come up with the idea to poke holes in another sailor's failed attempt at a cake, fill the holes with rum, then dress the whole thing up with candles and icing.

Le détective privé, Mike Hammer est devenu alcoolique à la suite de la disparition de Valda, sa secrétaire, assistante et maîtresse. Un agent fédéral sur le point de mourir à la suite d'une blessure par balle, confie à la police qu'il ne livrera des informations sur son tueur qu'à Mark Hammer et à personne d'autre. La police « ramasse » Hammer dans la rue et après l'avoir passé à tabac et lui apprend que la balle qui a mortellement blessé le fédéral est la même que celle qui a abattu un sénateur influent l'an passé. On le conduit près du mourant, celui-ci donne le nom de code du tueur "le dragon" et lui indique que des précisions complémentaires sont disponibles dans une enveloppe à son nom à un kiosque à journaux où il a ses habitudes. Hammer comprend alors que la résolution de l'affaire peut l'aider à retrouver Valda puisqu'avant qu'elle ne disparaisse elle était à une réception chez le sénateur le soir où il a été abattu. Hammer aura du mal à remonter la filière d'autant que le marchand de journaux qu'il devait contacter est retrouvé assassiné et que la police voit d'un très mauvais œil Hammer empiéter sur ses prérogatives.
