A bright, breezy comedy romance of a team of radio writers, their blond secretary and a girl who attempts to break up the team so that her potential marriage will be founded on a more financially stable basis. A smooth combination of tried and true elements, humorous comedy, and light and provocative love interest are tailor-made for the fast flowing situations and comedy antics of the cast. Willard Parker and Chester Morris are the radio writing team, Marguerite Chapman is the security minded fiance, and Janis Carter portrays the team's girl Friday. The comedy antics of these four plus those of Hugh Herbert and Jerome Cowan keep the plot moving at an accelerated pace. Produced by Burt Kelly, Ray Enright's direction takes the characters on a train ride from Chicago to Hollywood and through numerous complications when the writers prepare scripts, attempt to negotiate contracts with various producers aboard the train, use various methods of subterfuge to keep the team intact and cause general confusion with their carrying-on. Sound comedy entertainment, often emulating the film slapstick of two decades ago, the picture seems to be of a character and quality to amuse and entertain. Irving Bacon and Roscoe Karns, as the train conductor and talent agent, respectively, are worthy of mention.
