Show detail Hide detail

This film starts with a report by a detective agency denouncing Jimmy Burke as a robber. A father, his daughter and Burke are found in the salon of the father's house. The father tries to read the letter and afterwards indignantly throws out Burke, the lover of his daughter. She bursts into tears. Later, the young woman is found in the room in the company of a servant. An old woman enters and gives her a note that says her father has had an accident and is asking for her. The old woman takes the distressed girl to the street, where they wait for a cab. As the cab drives away, the father returns to find the servant in tears. The father telephones Nick Winter and then returns to the salon. A maitre d'hotel brings in a peasant and his little boy. The man gives him a note that says the girl is in no danger provided that he pays a ransom equal to her dowry. It is signed Villa Marie-Louise, Jimmy Burke. Nick Winter arrives and the father shows him the note. Winter then interrogates the peasant. He handcuffs the peasant, who actually is Burke, and the boy and incarcerates them in the neighbouring room. The boy escapes from the handcuffs, frees Burke, and they escape. Arriving at the villa, Winter and the father are greeted by the old woman. Inside, she gives a signal to the other members of the gang. The gang captures Winter and the father, putting them in a bedroom. Winter manages to free himself. When the old woman returns. he ties her to a chair. He shaves off his moustache. The father is brought to a large room where Burke orders him to turn over the ransom money. Nick Winter, impersonating the old woman, signals someone from a window. Just when the father is at the point of signing a cheque for the ransom, a group of police officers interrupt and capture the kidnappers. Winter demands that they reveal where the girl is hidden. They indicate a lever on the chimney, which, when pulled, opens a door giving way to a staircase leading to a basement. Winter, the father and some of the police officers, descend the stairs and call out to the girl. Hearing a response coming from behind a closed door, they force the door open. The father and the girl are reunited. <13mn 40s>
