***SPOILERS*** It's when Slip's ex-con cousin Chuck came over to crash at his mom's Moma Mahoney's place that things started tuning rotten for everyone involved. With him already a two time loser Chuck gets himself involved with big time gangster Tony Locerno's wear-house high-jacking and hot car racket that if caught can send Chuck away for life and end up killing Moma Mahoney by breaking her heart.
Even though he has no use for his rotten Cousin Chuck Slip ends up taking the rap for him in trying to stop Cuck from high jacking a truck loaded with furs and electronic appliances when he ended up getting suckered punched, and left lying unconscious, by Chuck. This has the good Father O'Hanlon come to Slip's rescue in vouching for him and his good character that has Slip now try to get to the bottom of what's going on in the Locerno mob by joining it! Now on the in's with mobster Locerno Slip tries to set him up in a police sting involving hot cars that he and his boys keep hidden, in order to chop up, at the Ace High Garage on the city's waterfront. What Slip and his goofy friend Sach plan to do is get the hottest available cars for the unsuspecting Locerno to chop up that would lead the police straight to his front door at the Ace High Garage: The Mayor District Attorney and police Chief's official city automobiles!
There's also Slip's former Bowery Boy buddy Ricky Moreno who's part of Locerno's sleazy operation who after seeing how crooked he is, even for a mobster, turns against him and helps Slip, without his knowledge, set his boss up. Ricky had all he could take from Locerno when he stiffed Ricky for a job he did for him in getting Locerno illegal gambling cash. But worst of all Ricky couldn't stomach Locerno's using young and misguided teenage boys and ex-cons, who faced life behind bars if caught, like Chuck to do his dirty work. Even Father O'Hanlon a man of pace and understanding just couldn't take what Locerno was doing by laying him out, with a straight right to the kisser, when he came to get him to stop corrupting the city's youth!
P.S At the end of the movie Sach feeling that he's being stiffed, in being forced to play second fiddle, by his Bowery Boys pal Slip tells him : "This is the last picture I'll ever make with you". As things, and Bowery Boy's film history, turned out Sach was to make over 30 more Bowery Boys films with Slip until 1956 after Slip quit the series when his pop known in the series as sweet shop owner Louie Dumbrowski died, from the injuries he suffered in a traffic accident, on September 11, 1955.
