The Seven Golden Men are assigned by the US government to kidnap the dictator general of a Latin American island nation who is allied with the Soviets and bring him in for questioning before he is to be surreptitiously returned to his home.
Upon interrogating him with a mind-reading device, the US officials find the General so thoroughly infatuated with Giorgia that he readily agrees to give up his allegiance with the Soviets and become an ally of the United States.
At the same time, the Golden Men - in a private side mission set by Albert - infiltrate the island and capture a Soviet cruiser carrying 7,000 tons of gold bullion for the General's intended revolution against the Americans.
Their private war over the gold is interrupted by the arrival of Albert and Giorgia, who voice their displeasure at their avarice, and a blockade by American warships coercing them into giving up their loot.
With an ingenious trick, the Golden Men manage to spirit most of the gold away to Geneva, but once again Albert intends to cheat his associates out of their share, as does Giorgia alongside the General, who is now in exile.
