Set up by their boss to be knocked off following a final heist, soon-to-retire crooks Brian Hope and Charlie McManus get wind of their impending demise and run off with the spoils of their crime.

In disguise, they convince Sister Superior that they're nuns, a charade they're forced to maintain as their enemies arrive.
