"That inimitable team- Lew Cody and Aileen Pringle- in a new riot of fun that sets another mark in sophisticated comedy-drama"

Gambler and fight promoter Jim Lambert, grants Gunner O'Brien his dying wish and agrees to care for Gunner's granddaughter, Mona, believing her to be a child. Mona turns out to be a beautiful young woman, however, and Jim overnight stops drinking and chasing skirts, becoming a devoted family man. Killer Gordon, one of Jim's fighters, becomes friendly with Mona, and Jim, believing that she loves Killer in return, himself turns for consolation to his former mistress, Yvonne, whom he asks to marry him.
