Safecracker Jimmy Valentine and his pal Swede are in the process of planning a "bank job" with Avery and other thieves, but Jimmy falls in love with Rose. Deciding to go straight under the name of Randall, he retires to the small town where she lives with her father. His cohorts try to dissuade him, and Doyle, a police detective who suspects his motives, tracks him down; but finding him on the level and about to marry Rose, Doyle relents. When Jimmy risks suspicion by opening his employer's safe to rescue a child, Doyle is certain he has reformed.
