The story

Small town veterinarian Edgar Mason (Charles Ruggles) discovers from a news-reporter that his just-graduated daughter, Chris (Lynn Bari), is set to marry much older and wealthy Freddie Browning (Alan Mowbray) under the guidance of his gold-digging wife, Martha (Charlotte Greenwood). Mason, disapproving of Browning, comes across young Mike Lord (Cornel Wilde) and bribes him to romance Chris in order to get her away from Browning. Although initially hesitant, Lord begins to genuinely pursue Chris and although she rebuffs him, his persistence manages to successfully break the engagement between Browning and Chris.
