Lovejoy comes to the U.S. for the first time. On the run from coast to coast and ending with a gambling tournament in California. After fleeing from a scrape in Hong Kong, Lovejoy is tending bar in a dingy Manhattan eatery and lviing in an even dingier midtown hotel. But it isn't long until he reveals his talent as an antiques divvy. Whe he's sent to wiat tables at a posh dinner party, he easily spots a guest's fake diamonds and argues over a water stain on a valuable antique table. Impressed by Lovejoy's divining abilities, the party's hosts draw him into an illicit antiques scam involving extortion, con tricks and beautiful women.
