　　BrandyKirby和邪恶的律师VincentMailer想通过伪造一个William和MaidaMcIntyre夫妇失散多年的儿子，来捞取好处。Brandy于是诱骗赌徒LeftyFarrell假扮这个儿子。McIntyre的侄女，喜欢Lefty，将他介绍了McIntyre夫妇，老夫妇很快相信了这就是Lefty他们的儿子，但老人却不肯修改遗嘱。Lefty不敢杀害McIntyre，而说穿了Mailer的骗局。(文：life_is_good@YDYeee　　BrandyKirbyandcrookedLawyerVincentMailerplantorobWilliamandMaidaMcIntyrebyproducingaconvincingdoublefortheirlong-lostson.BrandycharmsgamblerLeftyFarrellintoimpersonatingthemissingson.Kathy,theMcIntyre'sniece,wholikesLefty,introduceshimtotheMcIntyreswhosoonbecomeconvincedheistheirson,buttheoldmanrefusestochangehiswill.LeftybalksatkillingMcIntyreandexposesMailer'sattemptedswindle.BrandyandLeftyenduptogetheras"twoofakind."
