Phil Spar (Alan Baxter), a newsreel photographer in New York City, is doing a fashion shot outside a bank. Meanwhile in the bank Joseph Gibbons (Phillip Huston) 's pal, Mr. Fredericks(Michael Wyler) says he is closing out his account tomorrow and will be withdrawing $800,000.00. Phil unintentionally films Martin Beaumont (Richard Kollmar) as he is leaving the bank. An effort is made by Fredericks associate, Beck (Russell Collins) to secure this film. Beck approaches Phil to buy the film, spinning a tale about his wife and his girlfriend not needing to see him in the film. Phil meets magazine reporter Peggy Lane (virginia Gilmore) and they go to deliver the film to Beck. Then Phil's boss, Harry Avery (Loring Smith) discovers that Mr. Beaumont is actually Kurt Bauer, a wanted Nazi war criminal. Phil arranges a rendezvous with Miss Lane at his apartment, but Phil is kidnapped by Gibbons posing as a New York City detective. Phil makes a daring escape on the Staten Island ferry. When Phil returns to his office he finds that his boss killed the hitman who was sent to knock him off and steal the film negative.
