Jimmy Barnes arrives from Europe to be educated by his multi-millionaire
uncle, Edward J. Barnes and in five years the extravagant escapes of
Jimmy, now a lawyer, are the talk of San Francisco. Linda Gray is a
mouse-like secretary to the elder Barnes who has fallen in love with
Jimmy, but he favors actress Constance "Connie" Marlowe. Mr. Barnes
dies and leaves everything to Linda but he has urged his partner,
Alexander Duncan, to plan things so that Jimmy and Linda will get
married. Coached by Duncan, Linda accepts the inheritance and
announces that she is departing for New York on a wild spending spree.
He tells Jimmy that the will can be broken but only after many months and
he suggests that Jimmy follow Linda and curb her spending or there
won't be any money left. In New York, Linda hires Jimmy as her private
secretary. Connie also arrives in New York, as does the ingenious Baron
Rene de Montigny with the intention of marrying the wealthy Miss Gray.
Linda keeps Jimmy so busy he can't see Connie, while she, to make Jimmy
jealous, starts dating Rene. When Rene proposes, she tells him she has
no money and he says he couldn't marry a poor girl but will coach her into
how to catch Jimmy. The latter, now jealous, rushes to Linda's apartment
and attacks Rene who, being the amateur prize fighter champion of
France, knocks him out.
