Monica Cord (Beverly Garland) is a wealthy socialite who is planning to write a book about the homeless. She observes the men who attend a rescue mission and shelter in downtown Los Angeles. Monica becomes intrigued by one particular derelict, a tall, quiet man known only as John Doe (Leslie Nielsen). His main friends among the transients are Doc, an unlicensed doctor; Skateboard, a legless tramp who operates a newsstand; and Peanut, a heroin addict and hooker. Monica secretly follows John and finds he lives in a battered trailer in a junkyard. She examines his shelter when he leaves and is startled to find it filled with handwritten manuscripts. She takes one and reads it. Amazed, she brings it to her friend Adair Callison, a noted book critic, who agrees it is a remarkable literary document. They go to the junkyard and seek out John. Monica offers to provide him a room and office in her own home so he can continue his writing...
