SYNOPSIS
Rich and privileged Patricia Belmont (Sally Blaine) is on a luxury cruise before her wedding. She's missing something in her life. It turns out to be fun and spontaneous Bill Smith (Charles Starrett). Her position, social standing, and upper-class family stand in their way, but Bill is tenacious.

Wealthy but unhappy Patricia Belmont meets fun-loving insurance salesman Bill Smith (and his fun-loving friends Sam Ragland and Betty Harkness) on a ship cruise and falls in love, much to the annoyance of her high-society, fortune-hunting fiancé Barrington Thorne. When Bill and his friends visit the Bennett estate, Stoner, the butler, asks them to "Walk this way, please," and they oblige by imitating his bent-knee walk, in one of the first uses of this now-standard routine.
