A two-reel crook story. In the beginning Walter Edwards is seen as Buck Ryan conducting a school for young pickpockets. Later a detective gets wind of the gang's activities and cleverly works his way into the confidence of the gang. He falls in love with Ryan's daughter and she saves him when things threaten an end to his career. Buck Ryan is caught and hung in a trap door leading to a roof, which gives title to the production. Taken as a picture of low criminal life this is convincing .and holds the interest. - The Moving Picture World, January 2, 1915
