Financial tycoon Larry Day (Fairbanks) is a Wall Street wiz, but a dud at the art of love. Falling head over heels for glamorous aviatrix Vivian Benton (Daniels), he follows her onto an ocean liner, even though she is going overseas to marry someone else. Struggling to woo her, Larry is coached by his valet (Horton). But Larry is wiped out by the market crash and devastated by Vivian's rejection of him. Will he regain his fortune, and win his lady love? Find out in this delightful early sound treasure. (official distributor synopsis)
