Nickie Norton and his aide, Lefty, have two weeks of vacation coming to them so they head to California where Lefty has never been. It is far from a relaxing time though as they immediately stop an armed mugging. Even though the victim did not want to press charges, Norton decides to keep an eye on the mugger whom he recognizes as 'Bugs' Kelly, a known dope peddler. This will lead to Norton learning the victim was really a big-time drug smuggler who was up to something 'fishy'.
