Posing as an airline steward accused of a crime, Steed is inducted into an illicit diamond smuggling ring. After a successful flight to New York and a subsequent party, Steed returns home drunk. The next morning he finds he is accused of killing a girl in a hit-and-run accident during the night. But Dr. Keel determines that Steed had instead been heavily drugged, and could not have driven a car. The smugglers, who use each of their couriers only once, had blackmailed Steed into committing suicide, which is their MO. Just before Steed is forced to take his own life and that of an accomplice, Keel arrives with the police.
