Jane, with the plain looks but a heart of gold, is always in between jobs. Once she gets a job, her knack of creating awkward situations immediately loses it for her. Ricky is her suitor. But he gets nowhere as the girl has no time for love. So Ricky goes along with her in job hunting.Somehow, Jane lands on a job as governess. Not to a child, but to an uncouth very old, very rich man who still wants to lead the life of his poor, uncivilized youth. His son is now running the old man's millions. He wants to bring up the father the civilized way. And he wants to take over the whole city through take-over deals. He is ruthless and has thrown thousands into the streets.Jane and Ricky, bungling as they are, become the vanguard of a movement against the great conglomerate. They use all gimmicks to spring free the old man from virtual captivity and revoke the son's deal. The harder they try, the hotter becomes the water. They even get caught in tunnel holdup. And at the last moments, Jane and Ricky get the old man free and the son stopped.
