But when her sister tries to balance a romance between two men, Pat sees her chance to win the affections of one of them, a man she has been mooning over from afar (Orville Caldwell).

Overall, I'm not as in love with this as I was with Show People, but great performances from Davies and Dressler make it well worth viewing. Here's to hoping that it becomes part of the Warner Archive releases. (Post First Post ETA: and it obviously was! Hopefully more people will take a chance and see it!)
