Продажный шеф тайного отдела полиции поручает своему секретному агенту внедриться в ряды конкурирующего отдела с целью сорвать их расследование, связанное с изготовлением поддельных денежных знаков. Тому удаётся раскрыть настоящие планы фальшивомонетчиков — те хотят свергнуть власть в столице, но наводнив её не смехотворными деньгами, а армией нежити.
Компания эксцентричных и неудачливых аферистов задумывает сменить специализацию и провернуть новое для себя дельце: напечатать крупную партию фальшивых купюр. Прекрасно понимая, что вопрос сбыта готовой продукции новичкам не под силу, они решают взять в долю пожилого гангстера по кличке «Папаша», уже имевшего опыт в подобных делах. Несмотря на то, что тот давно ушел на покой и осел где-то в дебрях Африки, после недолгих уговоров он соглашается и вылетает в Париж. У одного из подельников есть любовница, а её муж — великолепный гравёр. Осталось только убедить его взяться за работу, а это совсем не просто, ведь он «фраер» (на блатном жаргоне — человек, не имеющий отношения к преступному миру).
The story revolves around the greedy nephew of a crime lord, who has his uncle bumped off so that he can take over the business.

Meanwhile, a cop is out to arrest any or all of the bad guys.

RCMP Sergeant Renfrew and Constable Kelly find Jim's body, and Renfrew hurries for Jim's cabin to search it. He is attacked by Weathers' men who have found the money.
