action

The friends Rudi, Fred and Jürgen, who have no completed vocational training and who keep their heads above water with odd jobs, dream of big money and plan to rob a money transport. The transport drivers Seibert and Friese had the feeling on previous trips that they had been observed and followed by different cars and reported their suspicions to the police. Konrad's assistant Robert accompanies the next trip, but he and the drivers are tricked by the trio and the friends escape with about 750,000 marks. In order not to be caught with the booty, they bury it, except for 3,000 marks for Fred, in the forest nearby.

Everything is going as planned. The three fabricate alibis, and the police have no trace. However, Rudi becomes suspicious that Fred, because of his constant lack of money, will dig up the money alone and before the agreed rest period. So he drives Jürgen's car into the forest and digs up the money. He is seen by a forester, whom he runs over. This is how the disaster takes its course.

The forester is just injured and makes a note of the car number. When Jürgen reports the car as stolen, the police pay attention. Robert follows him to Gerda Martin's bar, where he meets Fred and Rudi. Konrad does not believe in the alibis of the three and pains them. Gerda gives Rudi a false alibi for the accident with the forester, but demands 200,000 marks from the loot so that she can keep her mouth shut. Rudi orders Fred Gerda to kill and promises him to send his share immediately to the main post office in Munich with a password and poste restante. Fred doesn't really want to at first, but after Rudi sends off the package, he agrees. He should kill Gerda and then find out the password over the phone.

Fred goes to Gerda, but instead of killing her, he suggests that she outsmart Rudi by faking her disappearance and then they both run away with the poste restante money. Gerda apparently accepts it, but at the same time has her old friends Sielmann and Leibel on Rudi. They beat the password "Have a good trip" out of him and take most of the booty that Rudi had hidden at home with them. Rudi then unpacks at the police station and Fred is arrested in Munich's main post office when he is picking up the package. Sielmann has deposited the rest of the booty in Switzerland into a numbered account. On his return he is stopped at the border, but evades arrest by driving through with his Opel Admiral and fleeing at high speed. In a bend he hits a crane truck and burns in the car. He takes the bank information with him to the grave, so that the money is gone forever in Switzerland.

Others
