Два друга с детства никому не прощали обиды. Им удавалось очень изобретательно мстить своим обидчикам, устраивая разные гадости. Прошли годы, ребята выросли. Отец одного из них заболел — требовалась пересадка сердца, а для этого нужно было достать 50 тыс. долларов. Так как, кроме гадостей, ребята ничего делать так и не научились, они открыли фирму, чтобы мстить за тех, кто не любил сам делать «грязную работу»…

The Horatio Alger parable gets the film noir treatment with the redoubtable Edmund O’Brien as a whip-smart telephone technician who moves up the ladder of a Syndicate gambling empire in Southern California until distracted by an inconveniently married Joanne Dru and his own greed. Ripped from the headlines of the 1950 Kevaufer Organized Crime Hearings, this fast-moving picture is laden with location sequences shot in Los Angeles, the Hoover Dam and Palm Springs including the famous Doll House watering hole on North Palm Canyon Drive!
