In a change of pace, the third film of the series is a mystery that emphasizes atmosphere over comedy. Roland Young is paired with Joan Blondell, recently murdered and seeking his help to find her killer. As usual, his wife Billie Burke suspects him of playing around with the younger girls. It's actually the best of the series, though still not particularly original.
