Dangerously They Live

German agents arrange for Jane to be abducted in New York City by a taxi driven by one of their men. The taxi collides with another vehicle, and both the driver and passenger are rushed to the hospital. The chaotic incident marks the start of a dangerous case for Mike Lewis as he becomes involved in Jane's fate.

On the way to the hospital in an ambulance, Jane regains consciousness and insists she cannot remember who she is. She declares amnesia, complicating the investigation and pushing Mike to prove he can help. Mike persuades Dr. Murdock to let him take the case, despite the unusual circumstances.

John Goodwin appears and asserts that Jane is his daughter, trying to connect himself to the case. Jane denies it, telling Mike that Goodwin is lying and that she actually works for British intelligence. Mike remains skeptical as loyalties around Jane become increasingly murky.

A famous specialist, Dr. Ingersoll, arrives with Goodwin, signaling that expert opinion will shape Jane's case. Mike had previously studied under Ingersoll, which creates a tense dynamic of trust and doubt. The hospital setting intensifies the intrigue around Jane's amnesia and the spy plot.

In private, Jane expresses her desire to uncover as much as she can about the Nazi spy ring. Ingersoll suggests that Mike accompany Jane to ease her mind, and she agrees, inviting Mike deeper into the investigation. The arrangement marks a turning point in their uneasy alliance.

At the heavily staffed Goodwin mansion, Jane's safety depends on an escort, and Mike realizes how controlled she is. Steiner, a reluctant German agent, is kept prisoner there and passes Mike a warning note about the danger Jane faces. The note confirms that the operation is far from over.

Mike makes an attempt to escape from the mansion, hoping to expose the truth. The escape fails or is thwarted, reinforcing Ingersoll's hold on the situation. The tension between exposing the spy network and remaining under control intensifies.

Mike returns with Sheriff Dill to the mansion, only to find it deserted except for Ingersoll. The disappearance suggests a broader retreat by the spy network or a shift in plans. Mike and Dill regroup to reassess the dangerous situation.

Under threat from Ingersoll, Jane is coerced to disclose the location of a large convoy. Ingersoll immediately relays this intelligence to a U-boat wolfpack, escalating the threat to Allied shipping. The coercive tactic demonstrates Ingersoll's control over Jane.

Mike manages to wrestle a gun away from a henchman during the tense confrontation around the convoy plot. He blocks some of Ingersoll's moves and protects Jane from immediate harm. The struggle heightens the stakes for both the spy ring and the investigators.

Jane tells the authorities that she provided the wrong information, a move that delays the German plan and buys time for countermeasures. The confession triggers action by law enforcement to intercept the operation. The revelation reframes the danger she faces.

As a result of Jane's corrected information, bombers are dispatched to sink the U-boat convoy, significantly hindering the Nazi plot. The Allied response demonstrates a turning point in the broader conflict. The successful airstrike relieves some pressure on the anti-spy network.

Later, Mike and Jane are involved in an automobile accident, a dramatic setback that adds urgency to their mission. The collision tests their trust and resolve as they recover from the crash. The incident compounds the dangers surrounding Jane's safety.

After the crash, Jane pretends to have lost her memory again to mislead pursuers. The ruse is brief, as Mike's kiss triggers the sudden return of her memory. The moment solidifies their bond and greenlights their continued collaboration.

With her memory restored, Jane remains aligned with British intelligence and the fight against the Nazi spy ring. Mike's faith in her is reaffirmed as they resolve to continue their mission together. The immediate danger has subsided, but their partnership is stronger than ever.
