On February 9th 1964, the Beatles are set to play The Ed Sullivan Show. While a distracted city of New York gets ready to tune in and watch, ex-con Sonny Carter wonders, "Who will be watching the banks?"
Released from prison after serving twenty-five years for a botched bank robbery, Sonny has only one thing on his mind - revenge!
But a lot has changed in twenty-five years. For starters, his old gang is just that - old. They lean toward a life of leisure over larceny. Not to mention bank security has become tougher since Sonny was in jail. To make matters worse, Eddie Bishop, the turncoat who sent them all to prison, is now President of The Hudson National Bank and Trust Company, the same bank he tried to rob many years before.
With the help of a sexy bank employee, can Sonny succeed in pulling off the heist of a lifetime or will Bishop's devious obstruction and a corpulent mobster with nefarious plans of his own conspire to put him back behind bars?
