This comedy is set in New York and centers upon a singing Irish cop who causes quite a
sensation among two producers when he sings at the annual Policeman's Ball. For a long
time, they have been looking for a voice for their new cartoon feature, "Paddy the Pig," and
the cop is just perfect. The policeman is tickled pink at the prospect of being a star and
begins telling all his friends about his good fortune (he has no idea what they plan to do with
his voice). Eventually he ends up marrying one of the producers, who still hasn't told him the
truth. Suddenly the night of the big premiere finally arrives and all of the policeman's old
friends and colleagues are there. As it begins, the policeman is appalled and humiliated to
see that he has been mocked and has become a laughing stock. He immediately spurns his
new wife and goes back to the police force. Time passes, and fortunately, the two reunite
and settle their differences.
