An ex-cop who has just been released from prison where he was sent for absconding with $4000 from the police pension fund gets taken by his wife to Vegas for a divorce. Waiting for her outside a casino where his parole forbids him to enter, he hands a casino hostess money to stick in the slots where he hits a $450,000 jackpot.
