While debating his life’s next step, a young man sees a small plane crash-land into the river. He leaps to rescue the captain, who happens to be a millionaire, but manages only to catch hold
of his wristwatch. Though his intention was only to return the watch to the deceased’s family, he finds himself accepting a job as chauffeur to the man’s mother, just as the family prepares
to offer a sizable fortune to anyone willing to help recover the body.
