Synopsis

When Jonathan Peru, an amateur thief who has dug a tunnel under the vault of a bank, enlists the help of professional robber Harry Greene to pull off his heist, he shows Greene where to cut through to the vault using a red heart-shaped diagram bearing the directions, "Cut on the dotted line." Although Greene manages to accomplish the task alone, he offers part of the loot to Peru, whose conscience prevents him from taking it and who instead takes pleasure in watching topless and bottomless dancers at nightclubs. When Greene is sent to jail for robbing the bank, Peru remains free to indulge his sexual fantasies of the scantily clad dancers.
