A man discovers a metal that when cut in two remains connected even though it appears that there is empty space between the parts. He starts a magic act where anything he tosses through one hoop pops out the other. An audience member discovers his secret and forces him into criminal acts. When the thief forces the man to construct a crate to hold the loot, he places the hoop inside the crate and breaks down the door he was imprisoned behind. He confronts the thief who attempts to escape through his hoop but finds himself inside the sealed crate on the way to the penitentiary.
