Birdy makes bad choices in assembling his team of villains. One despises him, one stinks and the other is dating an informer for the Flying Squad. Surprisingly, their burglary on the Mail Rail succeeds in spite of a tragic accidental death. They have also annoyed a wealthy villain and the police are hot on their trail. They suffer bad luck, treachery and brutality before coming head-to-head with the law. And they take an innocent man down with them. There is only one winner.
