Rosco Frazer / Steinberg, a charming dodger, teams up with Doug O’Riordan / Mason, a recently released convict who served time for sinking a yacht that had irritated him. The pair meet during a rough brawl in a roadhouse, then slip into a truck together, each assuming the other is the driver. A routine highway stop spirals into a case of mistaken identity as truck-jackers, but Rosco’s ventriloquist act helps them bluff their way out of trouble.
