Hoping to pay back some gambling debt he owes to local mobster Mad Dog Flynn, Jim robs the local fishmongers, only to discover that it's actually a front for the mobster's business. Now on the run and pursued by police detective Weller, Jim is cornered in an antique shop where he takes hostage a collection of colourful characters, including American Joe Maguire, the owner who may be his illegitimate father, and his girlfriend Sophie.
