L'inspecteur de police Albert Gouvion est chargé de convoyer une importante collection de bijoux d'une valeur inestimable. Mais un dangereux et perfide truand, Marcel Lurat, dit « Quinquin » et ses complices font sauter le fourgon blindé au bazooka avant de s'emparer du butin. Quinquin va tuer, un à un, ses complices, y compris Gouvion, dont le meurtre est maquillé en accident ou en suicide. Le commissaire divisionnaire Louis Joss, supérieur et ami de Gouvion, ne croit pas à la thèse de l'accident et veut le venger. Il entreprend le ménage dans le milieu parisien en organisant la rencontre de deux bandes rivales (dont l'une est dirigée par Quinquin) à l'occasion d'un braquage avec l'aide de la maîtresse de Gouvion, Nathalie Villar, jeune et belle serveuse dans une boîte de nuit et sœur de Léon de Lyon, un des complices éliminés par Quinquin après le braquage. L'inspecteur comprend que son vieux pote, (qu'il surnomme affectueusement « Albert, la galoche », « l'empereur des cons ») avait ce don de s'attirer les ennuis, toujours de pire en pire selon lui, s'impliquant par faiblesse au milieu des gangsters pour impressionner et plaire à sa séduisante maîtresse.
