Held at Flattop's hideout the plan is to knock off Tracy for all the trouble he's been causing crime syndicate head Namgib, George Pembroke, who put a contract of $10,000.00 on his head.

With Tess getting in touch with her husband's partner Sam Catchem, Joe Devlin, in order to find him Tracy does a little psychology Job on Flattop in convincing him that his life is worth a lot more then the 10 G's that Namgib is to give him for knocking him off! With Namgib getting the news by phone from Flattop that he now wants 50 not 10 G's for getting Tracy out of his hair it give him, and Catchem in locating him, just enough time to make his escape. An escape that's to happen when Namgib comes to Flattop's hideout with the $50,000.00 pay-off or hit-job money.

***SPOILERS*** Dick Tracy playing on Flattops greed soon has him up the price for icing him to a cool 100,000 smackers-dollars-which leads to a falling out between the two hoodlums as well as Flattop's pal Mote. with Flattop deciding to do Namgib in and take the money, the 50 G's he has on him, which ends up in a wild shootout where both Namgib and Mote ended up being shot and killed! With the shooting going on the police lead by Catchem get there just in the nick of time to save Tracy's life. And with that Dick Tracy could now go home and eat the home cooked meal that his wife Tess prepared for him without any farther interference.
