*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

Things aren't working according to plan, the war isn't materializing quite as envisioned. Therefore a bold move is decided upon, a drastic final ploy. The Chinatown gang kidnaps the boss of all bosses.

He is a bedridden invalid whose ransom is a fortune, delivered by circuitous means nearly lost to police surveillance.

A shortage of his medicine necessitates a trip to the pharmacy, where a policeman is shot and a gangster's sister, too, developing the Scarface theme.

Manhattan South busts the gang, frees the boss and secures the ransom, which of course he denies all knowledge of. The camera finds mama's face behind the glass window of her shop, a worried woman transposed to a difficult environment, for a concluding image.
