When the little money available to him runs out, the young man changes his last name to Taylor, trying to persuade various banks to provide him with a new book of checks. The first scam, however, fails and Frank decides to try a more adrenaline-pumping venture. The boy, in fact, collects all the information necessary to pass himself off as a Pan Am pilot.
