A criminal gang known as the Spider Ring attempts to bring down San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge using a secret sonic machine, then steals plans for a new high-speed airplane and later spreads counterfeit money. Their activities prompt an investigation by government agent Dick Tracy (Ralph Byrd) and his assistants, Steve Lockwood (Fred Hamilton) and Mike McGurk (Smiley Burnette). The ring's leader, a shadowy figure called The Lame One, soon attacks Tracy's brother to stop the investigation.
