Jimmy's parents are neglectful boozehounds, which, according to him (and the movie) is the reason he accidentally becomes involved in a crime syndicate.
Shoe salesman Jimmy meets the lovely Kitty on the job. He pursues her, but she is under the thumb of (secret) crime boss Blake, who hires Jimmy to "run errands" for him. Jimmy is unknowingly transporting stolen goods and chauferring criminals around town. When he finally wises up, he skips town and takes a job working for kind-hearted cafe owner Al, who convinces Jimmy to go back and make things right.
