Stanley Fields is 'Bull' Bransom, a mobster operating a protection racket on the New York waterfront. He's more like a big kid, playing with model trains and there is a running gag with exploding cigars. John Garfield is a newspaper reporter who exposes him to the public. Bull is arrested and sent to an island prison. However, not much changes as Bull completely takes over the prison: the hospital ward becomes a gambling hall, he takes boat rides to the city, etc. Garfield gets himself arrested to enter the prison and expose the corruption.
