A bellhop who runs scams meets a blonde with gams to kill for and they run a con to fleece a man out of five grand. Then they go to the big city and get fleeced by real pros. Distraught, Cagney runs another con to replace the money and vows revenge. They pursue those that fleeced them and fleece them even harder. But wait, Blondell marries someone else and Cagney travels the world. He gets bored, comes home and Blondell reveals her husband's an embezzler so Cagney needs to save the family. One more fleecing leaves him in jail.
The only real reason to see this is the bundle of fire Cagney and the babelicious Blondell as a cute couple. It's kind of flat in its direction and all over the place tonally with an ending that's a big head scratcher. Overall okay, but nothing amazing.
