A newspaper reporter digging up dirt on a politician is framed for manslaughter after a drunk driving accident. His cell mate convinces him to escape, and he starts a new life in a nearby town. Five years go by, and his old cell mate shows up to blackmail his wife with the truth about their background. It starts out as a fast paced crime drama, but degenerates into a family melodrama, including gratuitous scenes with precocious 5-year-old Patti Hale singing songs with their negro servant!
