When American showgirl Farrell is about to be stranded in Paris while traveling with a shoddy revue, she accepts an offer of marriage from Hulbert, thinking him to be a man of wealth when actually he's a lowly farmer with three children and a rundown shack. Though incredibly let down,
Farrell has a chance to show her stuff by contending with her situation, including the catty gossiping of a jealous schoolteacher who hates the ex-showgirl. As the strait-laced teacher, Leigh gives a delightful performance and is the begetter of most of the film's laughs.
