Business has been bad of late for mortician Amos Duff (John Fiedler), and things don't brighten up much when Marvin Foley (Ed Gardner) arranges the cheapest funeral possible for his late partner, Robert Kessler. Luckily for Duff, he figures out that Foley murdered Kessler, and is thus able to blackmail the man into paying for the lavish "Class-A Funeral." Foley agrees, figuring that he'll be able to double-cross Duff once the body is cremated...but the murderer hasn't taken into account Duff's thorough knowledge of what is flammable and what isn't.
