Adolphe Menjou is John Mannering, the high profile black sheep of a Barrymore-like family of theatrical legends. The aging, alcoholic womanizer is amused by the arrival of long lost daughter Kay (Andrea Leeds).
Determined to become a star on her own merits, Kay has adopted the last name of "Martin." Mannering approves of Kay´s high-minded actions and agrees to keep his daughter´s identity a secret. As cruel result, Mannering and Kay become an item in the gossip columns as they are routinely seen together in public while refusing to explain their May-December relationship.
Edgar Bergen and his tuxedoed smart mouthed dummy, Charlie McCarthy, are Kay´s best friends. Their uproarious patter is the nearly constant commentary of the romantic intrigue around them.
