Egbert, a young man down on his luck, is taken in by a mysterious count who claims to be a great scientist. The count experiments on Egbert with a liquid that makes him invisible, intending to use him as a criminal accomplice, but things take a turn when a famed criminologist arrives on the scene.
Archie Pigface opens the Yip Yip Club, drawing in wealthy patrons—only for Her Highness and Silk to crash the scene with a scheme of their own.

Betty Bates is drawn into a web of deception when Red Skoras, a gangster with a grudge, tries to enlist her as his lawyer, only to be rebuffed. She soon suspects that Basil Wulff, his former associate, is behind a staged assassination attempt using a so-called lucky talisman to lure a gullible mark—possibly a wealthy superstitious man at a high-stakes gambling club.
