The Painted Smile (1962) follows the story of Jo Lake and Mark Davies, a duo who specialize in the "outraged husband" scheme. Their plans go awry when they cross paths with the menacing Kleinie. Jo, eager to retire from their criminal activities, is convinced by Mark to target one more victim before they leave. She lures a heavily intoxicated student, Tom, who has just won a significant amount of money, back to her apartment. Mark, hiding inside, hears footsteps approaching but is shocked to find Kleinie, who brutally stabs him and leaves his body in Jo's bedroom. When Jo returns with Tom, Kleinie calls to inform her of the grim discovery. Jo, fearing the police will implicate Tom, persuades him to dispose of the body using his car. Tom's erratic driving leads to a police encounter, but he manages to escape. His friends, Glynn and Roy, visit his fiancée, Mary, after learning about the body found in Tom's car. Tom reunites with his friends, and together they search for Jo. They eventually find her at King's Cross Station, but their escape is thwarted by the police. They are then captured and become prisoners of the sinister Kleinie.
