Ann Harper Berry (Loretta Young), a young socialite, receives an inheritance of one million dollars from her deceased grandmother. The will stipulates, however, that she will only receive the money after she has been married to someone who meets with the approval of her two prudish aunts Sarah (Louise Fazenda) and Katherine (Ethel Wales) Harper. The will also stipulates that everyone will lose their inheritance if a scandal involving Young occurs before she is married. In the case of a scandal, the entire estate will be donated to an organization for the welfare of cats and dogs.
