Forgettable fluff about a department store heiress who takes a ship across the Atlantic to escape an overbearing grandfather. She is befriended by a slightly zany shop girl, who gets her a job in one of her own stores. An intrepid newspaper reporter discovers her real identity, and falls in love with her. A couple of good screwball moments, and some small parts for Arthur Lake (Dagwood) and Marjoire Main (Ma Kettle), but otherwise corny and dated.
