Encyclopedia writer Professor Bertram Potts, (Gary Cooper) ventures into a chic nightclub, hoping to update his chapter on modern slang,  Inside, he meets the sarcastic burlesque performer “Sugarpuss” O’Shea (Barbara Stanwyck). Attracted by her compelling use of popular jargon, Potts invites her to stay with him. But, unknown to Potts, she is the fiancée of a mobster (Dana Andrews) and wanted by the police. In the ensuing mayhem, Potts must stay on his toes or be swallowed up by bigger fish.
