Plot

Dick Wallace has to prove to the preacher's daughter, his own father, his old friends, and himself that he is not just an irresponsible playboy. His new love Marion does a good job of convincing them. The question is whether or not it is true. Gold digger Polly has set her sights on Dick. But Dick falls in love with Marion Hall, the grand-daughter of a small town minister who owes Mr. Wallace money. Dick refuses to collect the debt, and is fired. He buys the only garage in town so he can stay and know Marion better. After they are married, Dick's father refuses to meet the new wife, convinced sight unseen that she must be a gold digger. Marion walks into the office just as Mr.Wallace fires his secretary, and she ends up with the job. Thanks to the efforts of meek office manager Little, a 3-way reconciliation is eventually arrived at.
