Plot
After Slip and Sach are cast to the street after unsuccessfully trying to secure jobs as urbane male escorts, Slip is enraged and vows to start his own escort agency. He suggests that the hardworking Louie Dumbrowski take a vacation and relinquish the responsibilities of his sweet shop to the boys. Louie reluctantly agrees and takes his wife to Coney Island. The boys convert his sweet shop into an escort service and give the place a makeover.Gabe, a bank messenger, has $5,000 of the bank's money stolen from him by a scheming woman working with local gangsters. They threaten to frame him for the theft unless he agrees to disclose the bank vault's combination. The gangsters take control of the sweet shop by convincing Sach that they are government men looking for uranium, but they are hoping to dig a path from the shop to the bank. Eventually Slip, Louie and the rest of the boys are pressed into service at the shop.
Gabe tells the police the whole story, and as soon as he does, the gangsters dig through the police-station floor, thinking that it is the bank, and are captured. Louie is pleased to learn that Sach did find uranium under his store, but he faints when he discovers that he only owns the land, not its mineral rights.
