Navy seaman marries rich socialite on a whim, prompting her family to claim he's only after her money. They concoct various schemes to make him think she has lost all her fortune, which only spurs him to try to get it back. Meanwhile, the two lovers try to find a way to fit in their honeymoon night in the midst of all the madness. Fast-paced screwball comedy is very entertaining, with occasional fourth wall breaks and inside jokes (those double takes!) adding even more lunacy.
