Cash McCall

Grant Austen Dean Jagger, the aging head of Austen Plastics, yearns for retirement. When Schofield Industries, his largest customer, threatens to pull its business elsewhere, Austen hires a consulting firm that identifies a potential buyer in Cash McCall James Garner, a sharp and persuasive entrepreneur. Cash meets with Austen and his daughter Lory Austen Natalie Wood, who owns a stake in the company. The two had met the previous summer and were drawn to one another, a memory that lingers after a rainstorm night when Cash briefly pushed away a serious relationship. In a bid to reconnect and seal the deal, Cash overpays for Austen Plastics, hoping the gesture will win Lory’s trust and secure his hold on the future.

Before the deal is finalized, Gil Clark Henry Jones, Cash’s new assistant, uncovers a critical fact: Austen Plastics holds patents essential to Schofield Industries. Alarmed by this leverage, Gen. Andrew Danvers Roland Winters, the retired Army general who heads Danvers’s venture, attempts to buy Austen Plastics himself. Cash recalibrates his strategy, believing he could run Schofield more profitably, and quietly begins acquiring a controlling interest in the other company, aiming to consolidate power from behind the scenes.

Amid the high-stakes negotiations, Cash proposes marriage to Lory, and she accepts, brightening the prospect of a shared future. Yet Maude Kennard Nina Foch, the hotel’s assistant manager who views Cash as a prize, schemes to undermine Lory by insinuating that she is the man’s girlfriend. At the same time, Austen’s associate Harvey Bannon Parley Baer convinces Austen that Cash swindled him, prompting a lawsuit that threatens to derail the entire deal. The complex web of trust, deception, and ambition tests every party involved, escalating tensions and shifting loyalties as the legal and personal stakes rise.

As the pieces move on the board, misunderstandings begin to untangle. The conflicts between business rivals soften, and personal bonds start to realign. In the end, Cash and Lory reconcile, and Grant Austen is urged to return to the helm, bringing Austen Plastics back into a steady, forward-looking course. The story weaves together boardroom maneuvering, romantic rekindling, and a renewed sense of purpose, showing how perseverance, timing, and honest communication can steer a family-owned business through a crucible of pressure and ambition.
