King Henry Stephenson would like some American loans to improve conditions in his country, so financier Edward Arnold offers to do so. To sell the bonds, he requires Princess Sylvia Sidney to go on a tour, but she comes down with mumps, so actress Sylvia Sidney takes her place. Newspaper publisher Cary Grant is skeptical.
Here's another attempt to star Miss Sidney in a comedy, but given Marion Gering's direction, even a script co-written by Preston Sturges can't chase the blues away; Miss Sidney remains depressed throughout as she falls for Grant's pretty unlikable character. Stephenson carries the acting honors, but the competition isn't too stiff here.
