Bull Weed offers Rolls-Royce, a
smart vagrant, a chance to clean up and workd for him. |
 |
Bull and his girl, Feathers
McCoy, wonder what evil plans his gangland rival, Buck Mulligan,
may be hatching to rub Bull out. |
 |
They have reason to wonder,
for Mulligan covets both Bull's power and his girl. |
 |
Bull gives Rolls-Royce a
thousand dollars and assures him that he himself doesn't need
help from anyone. |
 |
Feathers meets the cleaned-up
Rolls-Royce at his apartment, where they realize their mutual
attraction. |
 |
The annual gangland ball,
where gangsters park their gats, but not their vendettas. |
 |
At the ball, Feathers begs
Rolls-Royce not to return to his drinking. |
 |
Nearly raped by Mulligan
at the ball, Feathers knows that Mulligan's days are numbered
now that Bull is on his trail. |
 |
Feathers and Rolls-Royce
plan to run away before their loyalty to Bull brings them back
to a higher moral road. |
 |
Bull's men, attempting to
get him out of jail before he is hanged for the murder of Mulligan,
are foiled by the police. |
 |
Bull manages to escape anyway
and, holed up in his hideaway, listens for footsteps outside
his door. |
 |
Bull is touched as the injured
Rolls-Royce assures him of his and Feathers' loyalty to Bull. |
 |
Realizing the depth of Rolls-Royce
and Feathers' feelings for each other, Bull whisks them to safety
before he turns himself in to the police. |
