Unscrupulous con man Boyce Haskell feels ripped off when he gets a fortune from the Old Gypsy - that he'll "go a long way." He borrows money from his friend Bill, using it to get wealthier as he makes shady deals. He gets Bill involved in an apartment house building scheme where Boyce makes a bundle but Bill goes to jail for swindling. Chased by Bill's irate wife onto an empty subway train, Boyce sees his fortune coming true as it leaves the tracks and flies high up above the Earth.
