Terry (Teddy Robin), a diminutive rock enthusiast and manager of all-girl band The Playgirls, finds himself caught up in a chaotic espionage caper. After two bumbling Japanese hitmen tear apart a rock bar in search of the spy Yap and a hidden treasure map, Terry is wrongly blamed and storms out.

As the police close in, Terry falls for Inspector Nina, convinced that she shares his feelings, while spy chief Mak and his incompetent assassins continue their frantic pursuit of the missing map.
