Steve returns home and wants Pat to quit work. She believes that Townley will sign only with her, so colleague Vera Lane talks them into a wager over which one will succeed. Townley believes that Pat is unmarried and begins romancing her, upsetting burlesque performer Sugar Lee, his girlfriend.

Complications arise as Vera secretly schemes to ruin Pat's plans, helping her own advancement in the agency.
