Faced with the reality that their dream home is just out of reach, young lovers Humphrey Briggs (Eddie Albert, Oklahoma! and TV’s “Green Acres”) and Sally Elliot (Lucille Ball, Yours, Mine and Ours and TV’s “I Love Lucy”) decide that her opportunity lies in door-to-door cosmetics sales. But when the bumbling Sally stumbles upon a murder in progress, she becomes the number one suspect. In fleeing the police, Sally and Humphrey attempt to track down the real killers and find themselves in one comic mix-up after another. Directed by Lloyd Bacon, this fast-paced slapstick comedy shows Lucille at her best, just a year before her culture-changing turn as the most famous scatterbrained wife on television. Newly remastered.
