One night she meets young, handsome, rich Bob Dakin, who asks her for directions while drunk, then proceeds to take her out for a night on the town. Kay likes the stranger, and when he decides--while drunk--that they should get married, Kay hesitates little before consenting. The next morning, Bob, once he sobers up, regrets his mistake. His strict and upright parents, however, insist that the young couple pretend marriage for six months before divorcing, in order to avoid bad publicity. Bob resents Kay for standing in the way of him and his fiancée Priscilla, but Kay still hopes that he'd have a change of heart.
