Mas quando Johnny planeja umas férias, para os dois curtirem a vida enquanto ainda são jovens, sua noiva tem outros planos. Ela quer que Johnny trabalhe no banco do pai dela!

Ela é Linda Seton (Katherine Hepburn), a realista irmã caçula da futura esposa dele, e que gosta de Johnny do jeito que ele é.
Mrs. Manners
Lady lawyer Portia Merryman (Frieda Inescourt) defends woebegone Elizabeth Manners (Heather Angel), who is on trial for shooting her lover Earle Condon (Neil Hamilton). Ironically, Portia herself had once had a relationship with Earle Condon, but Earle's father, powerful publisher John Condon (Clarence Kolb), forced them apart. She has a pretty good idea of what is going on in Elizabeth's head, since she herself was on the verge of killing Earle Condon when his father ruthlessly took custody of her illegitimate son. As Portia toils and strains to free her client, she carries on a romance with Dan Foster (Walter Abel) -- the attorney for the prosecution. LA Law and The Practice have nothing on this one!
