You didn't have to be a rocket scientist to realize that the Allan Hale part is one of being a counter spy, just like the lead role of Sally Eilers.
The film is basically a routine one where Eilers, following the tragic death of her military brother due to espionage, decides to join and fight spying by herself.
There she meets up with all kinds of characters, one which is led by the terrible Dr. Krull, a wonderful Fritz Leiber here. Leiber's very demeanor is the embodiment of evil.
The scene where Eilers and Hale pass themselves off as married people to prudish people is absolutely hilarious. You know that the film will end in the way that it does when the 2 return, now married, to the very same boarding house and say they're here on their honeymoon. The expression on the prudish couple is worth the price of admission.
Naturally, the film served as a reminder that spies were everywhere, even within the government itself.
