A veterinarian (Guy Kibbee) and his wife (Cora Witherspoon) leave their small burg and move to the Big Apple after he inherits a million dollars. His social climbing wife insists on the move because she wants her daughter (Dorothy Moore) to make a formal debut. Unfortunately for the family, the fortune was earned by a brutal mob boss (Gordon Jones), the veterinarian's dead uncle. Once in the city, they find themselves assailed by gangsters wanting the money. This comedy chronicles their efforts to keep the criminals at bay. (official distributor synopsis)
