Collette, the ditzy but sneaky maid, finds the wealthy Reginald Bascombe III dead at his desk with a knife in his back. Coincidentally, Pete Cannon, the meanest, roughest, toughest ace private eye, ear, and nose — throat comes extra — in the business, appears just as Bertram the butler discovers that all the phone cords have been cut. A caricature of every 1940s tough-guy gumshoe to ever grace the pages of a dime novel, the bumbling detective is surprised to discover con artist Toots Doll Monahan on the scene masquerading as Reginald’s personal secretary. With a heart of gold and a soft spot for Pete, they discover they make a pretty good team paired up to solve the mystery. Much more a comedy than a mystery, your audience will “die laughing” at the variety of silly expressions from the corpse as he reacts to the investigation about his death. In fact, he has the final word!
