Gang boss Wolf Lupo is running a protection racket in Big City. Witnesses are afraid to testify against him except for one man named Kraus. Lupo’s men kidnap Kraus and take him to their hideout to silence him one and for all. Meanwhile, District Attorney Dan Rogers is puzzled on how to proceed against Lupo without Kraus' testimony. Rogers’ son Tommy Rodgers offers to help, but his father denies him. Instead Tommy and his friend Tubby dress as mystery-men and visit their clubhouse, where they find Kraus, the kidnapped man.
