The pair take a recording of Tommy Taylor's band and make a record with Mary doing the vocals. Due to an error, 10,000 pressings are made and released by the record company owned by J.P. O'Hara (Tim Ryan). Taylor (Jerry Cooper) has always refused to have a girl singer, and through his agent Herman Strohbach (Robert Kent) threatens to sue Jimmy. Taylor hasn't heard the record but after he does, he changes his mind and instructs Strohbach to find her and sign her to a contract. As a result of a misunderstanding, Strohbach signs Polly Kane (Irene Ryan), O'Hara's wacky secretary. O'Hara doesn't know that Taylor has decided to use Mary as his vocalist, and fires Jimmy and Sammy after they tell him what has happened. Things eventually get straightened out, but Strohbach finds himself with Polly under a personal contract to her. Written by Les Adams See less
