Wayne Newton is suspected of manslaughter after a car crash and goes on the run through the Nevada desert. He ends up at a nearby school for the blind where they mistake him for a handyman. His easy going manner endears him to the school's teacher Jo Van Fleet and all of the children, including Erin Moran. The police eventually show up and we learn through a flashback that he was actually carjacked by Sal Mineo, but needs to find Mickey Rooney as a witness to clear him! Rooney overplays his small role as a drunk badly. Newton croons a couple of songs in that weird voice and should have never tried acting.
