Business is booming but conflict arises when Dan wants to take on a lucrative municipal contract. Accepting the contract would force the garage into illegal activities and Marty refuses. Their partnership is tested to the limit, when corrupt politicians are unhappy with Marty's reluctance and have him arrested on false charges.\u003cp\u003eOriginally titled \u003ci\u003eThru Traffic\u003c\/i\u003e, this production was filmed by Warner Brothers as a feature length thinly-veiled ad for the Perfect Circle Company, manufacturer of high-end piston rings.
