00:00There's a quarter of a million dollars in gold bars sunk on the bottom of the Platte
00:08River in the steamboat Bonnie Blue.
00:10My husband stole it.
00:12He took it from the United States Mint in Denver, Colorado, and I want you to put it
00:16back in the mint.
00:17Pinkerton said you could do anything.
00:18Do you?
00:19And now I'm sure of it.
00:20In a bed, in a boat, in a bank, in a brawl, don't mix with Sam Whiskey.
00:38It's risky.

00:47These little surprises, just how in the hell am I supposed to get the real gold into the
00:52mint and the phony gold out of the mint in 48 hours?
00:55Angie Dickinson is Laura, the kind of girl who makes whiskey and women a dangerous combination.

01:21Never been to Denver before.
