When McCloud is summoned to JFK Airport by Chief Clifford, he finds Clifford held hostage by two crooks, one of whom keeps Clifford company at home while the second goes with McCloud on a pair of phony diplomatic passports to Paris, with this mission of concluding a secret business deal with smugglers. When McCloud gets out of the net, he and a friendly stewardess must track down the second thug and catch him before he can order Clifford murdered.
