Plot edit

As described in a film magazine review,[2] Steve Perkins decides to borrow Winnie, the newly acquired wife of his roommate Fercival, in order to meet his Aunt Sarah's wishes and get his inheritance sooner. The aunt is so impressed with Winifred that she leaves the money in the name of the framed-up wife. Aunty, however, runs into Winifred and her real husband Percy together and it looks suspicious to her. Of course, after that she stumbles across all kinds of suspicious circumstantial evidence and, after many kinds of humorous complications during which Steve really gets married to someone else, the whole plot is unraveled, Steve confesses to the hoax, and it all comes out right.
