A brassy gold digger who loves ’em and leaves ’em Gertie Dale (Lightner) drops by the office of ex-husbands Elmer (Chic Johnson) and George (Ole Olsen) when they’re late with their alimony checks. Recently re-wed to ensure their employment the boys work for John Aberdeen Arnold (Claude Gillingwater) a lifelong bachelor who insists his employees be married and doesn’t believe in divorce. Refusing to leave empty-handed Gertie vamps Arnold into taking them all on a cruise where she plans to get what they owe her and more when she marries the smitten old man.
