What happens in Dangerously They Live from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 15 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 4-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

In New York City, German agents arrange for Jane Greystone (Nancy Coleman) to take a taxi driven by one of their own men. The abduction almost succeeds, but a collision with another vehicle sends both the driver and Jane to the hospital in an ambulance attended by intern Dr. Michael ‘Mike’ Lewis (John Garfield). On the way, Jane regains consciousness and claims to have amnesia, unable to recall who she is. This surprising turn catches Mike’s curiosity, and he persuades Dr. Murdock (Roland Drew) to let him take the case, drawn by professional interest and a growing sense that there’s more to the situation than a simple kidnapping.
