Trama
Durante il proibizionismo, Dave "lo Sciccoso" è a capo di una banda di contrabbandieri di alcolici a New York. Dave è un tipo superstizioso, che ha un debole per le mele "magiche" vendute da Apple Annie, una mendicante alcolizzata, convinto che gli portino fortuna. Apple Annie con grandi sacrifici ha mantenuto la figlia Louise in un collegio in Spagna dove la ragazza ha conosciuto il figlio del conte Alfonso Romero. Il conte, il figlio Carlos e anche Louise (che non sa nulla della situazione economico-sociale della madre) stanno per arrivare a New York per conoscere la famiglia. Dave, che in fondo ha un cuore d'oro, decide di aiutare Annie, e con la sua banda organizza i preparativi per trasformare la stracciona in una gran signora.
