$100,000 to Get Married! What a Tempting Offer! But it led to the funniest series of matrimonial complications that ever harassed a lovesick youth and a good-natured maiden.

Gerald Faulkner, a young tin-can salesman, has fallen for sexy chorus girl Carlotta La Mere. One day Gerald's wealthy uncle Dunley makes him an offer: if he gets married by the following Saturday, Dunley will give him $100,000. Gerald rushes to propose to Carlotta, who agrees. However, the day before the wedding she asks for a postponement. Complications ensue.
