Lucy, using binoculars to view a building across the street, thinks she has seen two criminals commit a burglary. The criminals spot her. The next day, before Lucy comes into work, the crooks force Harry to tell them where Lucy is. Harry spills his guts and the hoodlums lock him in the closet. After Harry is freed, he first tells Lucy what happened and she should leave home. He then calls private detective Joe Mannix to protect Lucy.
