Plot
Margie Moore (Havoc), a down-on-her-luck San Francisco woman, turns in desperation to jewel robbery. She barely escapes getting nabbed in a heist and moves to Los Angeles where she gets an honest job as a waitress. Her troubles start again, however, when she falls madly in love with smooth-talking Mitch Foster (Romero). Mitch reveals his true colors by stealing every penny she has, then turning her into the authorities. Upon her release from prison, Margie swears revenge.
