In 1954 Detroit, Michigan, gangster Curt Goynes, in need of cash to leave town, is recruited to threaten a family as part of a blackmail scheme, along with gangsters Ronald Russo and Charley. The recruiter, Doug Jones, sends them to the house of GM accountant Matt Wertz, where they are to hold the family hostage while sending Wertz to the office where he works, to retrieve a document from his boss' safe but finds it empty. A desperate Wertz brings fake documents to Jones, then returns home where Charley prepares to execute the entire family, to the surprise of Goynes and Russo. Not wanting to be part of a massacre, Goynes shoots and kills Charley.
Jones phones the house, having discovered the documents are fake. He orders Goynes to kill Russo and the family, and Goynes realizes he and Russo have been set up. Before they leave, Goynes instructs the family to tell the police that Charley broke into their home and that Wertz killed Charley in self-defense. The police detective, Joe Finney, is skeptical of the family's story. Once the police leave, Goynes, Russo, and Wertz go to Wertz's boss' house in Ohio and retrieve the real document, which turns out to be plans for a new car part. Goynes and Russo discover they have a high bounty placed on their heads, and make plans to ascertain what the document is worth by arranging a meeting with Frank Capelli, the mob leader who contracted the blackmail scheme and with whose wife, Vanessa, Russo is having an affair. Goynes makes further arrangements with mob leader Aldrick Watkins to take part of the eventual payment in order to clear himself with Watkins, with whom he is on the outs.
Goynes and Russo have a meeting with Capelli. Goynes deduces that the value of the document vastly exceeds the amount they considered it was worth. Jones arrives and points a gun, showing Capelli and Jones' intention to turn on the gangsters. This results in a shootout that kills Doug. Frank flees, only to be caught by Goynes and Russo who extract the name of his contact. Curt calls the contact, Naismith, a Studebaker executive, and arranges to sell him the document for $125,000. Frank escapes, but when he returns home, a battered Vanessa shoots and kills him before departing with a suitcase of cash. Seeking a bigger payday, Goynes and Russo return to Wertz's boss' home and have him call his contact further up the chain of command. Goynes and Russo meet with arrogant automobile industry executive Mike Lowen (aka "Mr. Big") at a downtown hotel, who pays them $375,000 to retrieve the document. The document is revealed to be plans for a catalytic converter, and Mr. Big is seeking to conceal its existence from public knowledge and avoid governmental pressure on the car companies to implement pollution controls. Mr. Big tells Goynes and Russo that even though they are taking his money, it does not matter - he will always have more.
After Mr. Big leaves, Goynes and Russo attempt to split the money but are interrupted by Watkins and his men, who have already retrieved the $125,000 from Naismith. It initially seems Goynes and Watkins team up to betray Russo, but Goynes is led away at gunpoint by Watkins' men. Ronald is allowed to leave with the $375,000. Watkins and his men are stopped outside the hotel by Detective Finney and his men, but he bribes the detective with $50,000 of the Naismith money to let them leave with Goynes, telling Finney that Goynes will be "taken care of". Russo flees the city with Vanessa, but when they leave the main road to avoid a potential pursuer, she kills him and claims the money for herself. As she drives away, Vanessa is stopped by a police officer, who takes the money and then allows her to leave. Detective Finney privately returns the money to Mr. Big, including the $50,000 bribe from Watkins. Watkins takes Curt to a pier, where they make amends. Watkins gives Curt $5,000 and allows him to leave for Kansas City.
