See No Evil, Hear No Evil

David "Dave" Lyons, a deaf man, and Wallace "Wally" Karew, a blind man, meet when Wally applies for a job in Dave's NYC concession shop. After a brief period of confusion and antagonism, they become close friends. Dave reads lips and guides Wally when they travel, and Wally tells Dave about invisible sources of sound and what people say behind his back.

After being hired at the shop, Wally waits outside for the day's newspapers. Meanwhile, a bookmaker to whom Wally owes money walks into Dave's shop with a briefcase. When the man is approached by a woman named Eve, he hides a gold coin from his suitcase in a coin dish. Eve takes the briefcase and shoots the man while Dave’s back is turned.

Dave does not see the shooting but notices Eve's legs as she leaves. Wally, who heard the gunshot, walks into the shop and trips over the dead body. Dave then rushes to help Wally and picks up the gun that Eve left behind. The police find them over the body with Dave holding the gun. As they are arrested, Wally picks up the day's collections from the coin dish and stashes them in his pocket.

At the police station, Dave and Wally are interrogated by Detective Captain Emile Braddock and Lieutenant Gatlin, who make them the prime suspects after they are unconvincing as witnesses. When Eve and her accomplice Kirgo – hoping to recover the coin – pose as attorneys to bail them out, Wally recognizes Eve's perfume and Dave her legs, but Braddock ignores them when they insist that she is the killer.

Dave and Wally escape from the police station, but the criminals soon find them. Eve takes the coin from Wally and calls her boss Mr. Sutherland for instructions, while Dave learns their plans by reading her lips. When Kirgo tries to kill them, they knock him unconscious.

They then steal an unattended police car, and Eve, Kirgo, and Braddock chase them. Working together to guide the patrol car, Dave and Wally evade their pursuers but accidentally launch the car onto a waterborne garbage barge.

After hiding the police car, they call Wally's sister Adele for help. The three then head for a resort mentioned in Eve's call to her boss. There, Wally impersonates a visiting professor. Meanwhile, Dave sneaks into Eve's room and steals the coin. Meanwhile, Adele distracts Kirgo by crashing her car into his. However, Kirgo and Eve discover the ruse, kidnap her, and take her to Sutherland's estate.

Arriving at the Sutherland estate, Dave and Wally free Adele but end up captured. In his study, Sutherland – who is also blind – reveals that the coin is an outer disguise for a sample of an extremely valuable material called a superconductor. Kirgo and Sutherland are killed during an argument over sharing the profits, after which Dave and Wally rescue Eve.

When the police arrive, Wally and Dave are cleared of the charges. Shortly thereafter, the two men reaffirm their friendship at a local park.
