Plot

Chris Pepper and Charlie Salt own a nightclub in Swinging London, operating under the suspicious eye of the intrepid Inspector Crabbe.
One night, Pepper finds an Asian girl on the floor of the club. Assuming she's drunk or high, he makes a date with her and thinks she responds. It turns out the girl is dying, and her death sets off a chain of events that puts the unlucky Salt and Pepper onto a plot to overthrow the British government, with the girl's dying words the key.
