The incompetent gang fail in an attempt to rob Gordon and decide to change tack and kidnap Gordon’s beloved daughter instead, however, they err yet again and end up with Gordon’s wife Lucy. Hearing that he has refused to pay her ransom, his wife turns the tables on him, drawing on her expertise as a wartime PT instructor by marshalling the support of the crooks.
