Storyline

Playwright-songwriter Michael Royce has settled four breach-of-promise suits in two years, at a cost of $25,000 or $50,000 each. Whenever he meets a pretty girl, he can't help himself. At the suggestion of his valet, Royce hires reporter Judy Nash (at triple her current salary) to keep him out of trouble. At first their relationship is all business, but nature takes its course...

Quotes

Michael Royce: [running a fever in bed] I think I'm going to expire.
Judy Nash: Oh, Michael!
Michael Royce: I have a foreboding I'll soon be exploding if my temperature gets any higher.
Doctor: Where there's smoke, there's fire. Now, young man, this may turn to neuritis, arthritis, or even a case of sclerosis. You must go on a diet, have ansolute quiet, or else you will develop thrombosis.
