After being fired from the position as clerk that he has held for 24 years, mild-mannered Mr Chedworth takes a position as a night watchman, where he stumbles on a printing press and a bag of money. He takes the opportunity to live large – not realising that the money is counterfeit and that its creators are looking for it.
