You Need a Friend, Strong Man, - And I'm Friendly!
Nick Garcos comes back from his tour of duty in World War II planning to settle down with his girlfriend, Polly Faber.

He partners with prostitute Rica, and together they go after Mike, all the while getting pulled further into the local crime underworld.
