It's twist after twist as Gondorff (Jackie Gleason), Hooker (Mac Davis) and Countess Veronica (Teri Garr) try to out sting both Doyle Lonnegan (Oliver Reed), the notorious gangster previously stung by this group and now out for revenge and profit, and Macalinski (Karl Malden), a local racketeer. It's the con to outdo all cons, and someone's finally going to get stung... but who?
