Winnie Lightner is the head of a health clinic and has Joe E. Brown as one of her employees.

JoJo is knocked out early in the proceedings, whereupon he dreams he's a sultan surrounded by harem girls. A romantic subplot involves Paul Gregory and Claudia Dell.

When Gregory refuses to be promoted without earning the position, she threatens to have him fired and Gregory quits his job.

She pleads with him to not fight but he has already promised...
