Plot



George is a sailor and smooth-talking lady's man who believes in the adage "love 'em and leave 'em" when it comes to women. While on leave in Morocco, George meets Lorette, a fiery French dancing girl who falls madly in love with him, unaware that he has a girl in every port. Initially thinking of her as just another diversion, George soon discovers that he can't get rid of the girl. She follows him to the United States; he does his best to avoid her. Amused by George's predicament and feeling sorry for the girl, his two best friends, Tom and Jerry shanghai him aboard a vessel and arrange things so that George is unable to avoid Lorette. As a result, George surrenders to the inevitable and marries her.
