Three smalltown girls--Flossie, a giantess; Hope Durant, a seamstress, and Sally Roxford, a
schoolteacher--win a trip to Monte Carlo, sponsored by their local newspaper, with Bancroft, the star
reporter, as their guide. Tony Townsend, an American who has been evicted from numerous hotels
in Monte Carlo for failure to pay bills, registers at the same hotel as Sally and accidentally meets her
while evading detectives on a balcony. Tony borrows the uniform of a Prince Boris, which he finds in
an adjoining suite, and is mistaken for the prince. At a fashion show that night, Sally models for
Pierre, a great designer, and Tony becomes enamored of her, while Flossie mistakes the doorman for
a duke and Hope takes a waiter for a count. Following his escape from anarchists, Tony declares his
love for Sally, is jailed as an imposter, but is released through the intervention of the real prince and
leaves for America with Sally.
