A detective, Victor Morell (Ceasar Romero) assumes the guise of a jewel thief to infiltrate a criminal ring who he suspects of having stolen a fabulous gem. The comedy caper takes place on a transatlantic crossing from New York to Europe. The passengers include various crooks, insurance investigators, and the jewel thief himself, Julian Stevens (Alan Dinehart). In solving the case and bringing the criminals to justice, Morell finds that he has fallen in love with a member of the gang, Valerie Barton (Phyllis Brooks). She pledges to reform and is placed on probation - instructed to report the detective, now her fiance. [3]
