Plot Synopsis

Breezy musical farce. Two business partners find themselves in all sorts of romantic trouble. One of them is planning to marry his secretary, and the other, who is engaged to an aristocrat, advises him to fire her before proposing. The fellow does, but unfortunately, the distraught secretary, not knowing why she was released, attempts to commit suicide in a river. Fortunately the other partner rescues her and takes her back to his apartment to warm up. He begins pouring brandy down her and she gets uproariously drunk. He then takes her to a high-society party where the woman’s behaviour is so outrageous that her escort’s fiancée walks out. In the end, the man ends up proposing to her and happiness somehow ensues.
