Broadway Limited -- Hollywood movie star April Treymane's (Woodworth) tyrannical producer Ivan (Kinskey) concocts a plan for a huge publicity stunt on the train ride from Chicago to Manhattan. Ivan asks his wisecracking assistant Patsy (Kelly) to help create a story that April has adopted a baby. Patsy enlists her ex-boyfriend, railroad engineer Maurice (McLaglen), to temporarily 'borrow' a baby for the stunt, but the borrowed baby may well have been kidnapped and is currently the subject of a nationwide search. Complicating matters, April runs into her ex-boyfriend Dr. Harvey North (O'Keefe), who really believes that the baby is April's. A well-written, witty, and hilarious, but little known, gem of a screwball comedy.
