Plot
A garbage truck driver, Eddie Martin (Fred Brady) from Manhattan finds a bag of $5,000 during his rounds. He decides to take his sweetheart, Julie Connors (Jeff Donnell) for a wild night on the town, buying and spending on things they've always wanted, but never thought they would have. Problem 1 is that the money actually belonged to a blackmailing hood named Steve Crawford (William Wright). Problem 2 is when the police start asking uncomfortable questions about why the marked money they hoped to trap Crawford with, is now in the possession of Martin and Conners.
