| ~Plot Synopsis~ |
This comedy was based on a novel by author Edna Ferber. Although she is merely a classified ads
employee, Babs Comet (Corinne Griffith) is determined to have the finer things in life. She spends all
her money on clothes and eschews the subway, preferring instead to entice wealthy young men into
driving her home -- of course, if any of them get fresh, she lets them have it. One man, however, won't
play her game and he turns out to be garage mechanic Lloyd Whiting (Jack Mulhall). Naturally, Babs
falls for him. But first she lands herself in trouble when a wealthy man puts her in a compromising
position. His car "breaks down" and she is forced to spend the night walking home. Her parents
(Edythe Chapman and Charles Murray) are scandalized, but the man offers to marry her. Babs turns
down his offer, preferring to wed Whiting instead.
