Restless inmates are assigned to the road gang where they pound rocks all day then stop for donuts and cookies at a local farmhouse. The girlfriend of one of the prisoners has taken on a job there and he can barely believe his luck. Meanwhile back at the prison, there is a jailbreak and the escapees end up at the same farm and make trouble. The warden decides to trust the inmates with guns for a hunt. Incredibly naive, even for the time, and unintentionally funny, just listen to the men chanting "donuts, donuts" outside grandma's kitchen door.
