PLOT DESCRIPTION Lou, a loser in every sense of the word, decides that he's tired of being poor. He forces his wife, Irene and his brother, Billy, (who are secretly in love with each other) to fake his death so that they can collect on the only thing Lou owns that's worth a dime - his life insurance policy. After successfully faking his death, Lou hides out on a tropical island, gets some plastic surgery, and awaits Irene. When Irene never shows up, Lou goes home to find that Irene and Billy are now married and are claiming to not know who he is. Lou goes to the police and confesses to the faking of his own death. However, the entire thing backfires and Lou is executed for his own murder. |
