Best buddies Eddie and Paul are on parole and working as counter-hands in a New York diner. Their lives are at a dead end until English lawyer Katherine Rookwood walks into the diner with an offer they can't refuse for a "simple" job in London. A client of hers needs a package delivery interrupted, so Eddie and Paul recruit a pair of goons to help them create a distraction and hijack the package. But things go terribly wrong and Eddie, Paul, and Katherine find themselves at the mercy of a well-heeled crime boss and his psychotic thug. Their fate rests on the whereabouts of a prize gem known as the Blue Iguana, once the property of a European princess who wants it back. With Eddie, Katherine and Paul find themselves hiding out in a loft across the street from the thug, trying to save themselves from him as they try to get the Blue Iguana and return it to its rightful owner.
