Charlie Chan is in New York for a convention when his old friend from Scotland Yard is murdered. He takes over the case, which leads to a group of saboteurs targeting American bombers. Aiding in the investigation is a dumb New York City police detective and an over zealous Jimmy Chan. At one point they round up "every Hindu in New York City" for a line-up, one of whom is Shemp from the Three Stooges in heavy make-up. The denouement takes place on a flight of a test plane, but no one is murdered.
