As described in a film magazine review, newlyweds Gilbert and Marilyn Sterling make their home in a pleasant suburb. The young wife explains that she wants an automobile badly. The husband takes out a mortgage on the home and buys a machine from crafty auto salesman William Donroy, which then leads to fresh extravagances. The couple gets in with a fast set and Gilbert borrows some cash from his employer. The employer discovers the theft, but accepts Gilbert's promise to work hard and make good and atone for his embezzlement. Gilbert gets rid of all of his sponging relatives, moves to the city, and makes good on his promise. All ends well for the couple. Cast
