The story

A well-organized gang hijacks an armored car, breaking in and stealing some currency engraving plates while ignoring the actual money. One of the hijackers delivers the plates to Vince Ricardo on the roof of a disused building. Meanwhile, the daughter of mild-mannered Manhattan dentist Sheldon "Shelly" Kornpett and the son of businessman Vince Ricardo are engaged to be married.
