Plot

[edit]

Joy Stanhope, a Park Avenue debutante whose Coming out party is the highlight of the social calendar. Although she is linked to the very eligible bachelor Jimmy Wolverton, she is in fact in love with Chris Hansen, a violinist in a jazz band and the son of poor Swedish immigrants. She keeps secret her relationship with Hansen, knowing her parents would not approve. In fact they pressure her to go on a date with Wolverton, which enrages Hansen. After quarrelling they reunite later that night and soon after she finds herself pregnant.

She is about to tell Hansen, when he announces that he has received a "once in a lifetime" offer to tour Europe with a renowned opera singer. Unwilling to deny him this chance she keeps silent about her pregnancy. While he is away, in a daze of distress, she elopes with Wolverton and marries him. When Hansen finds out about this from the family's kindly Scottish butler he returns to America.
