Overview
When the Navy pays a courtesy call in Venice, a lieutenant, an ensign and a civilian scientist take up residence in a plush hotel to execute a fantastic scheme. With the aid of a spotter in a local roulette palace, they are going to relay numbers from one particular wheel to the secret computer aboard a cruiser and use the scientific calculation of odds to break the bank. A couple of lovely girls prove too distracting for the schemers. The lieutenant falls for the one who turns out to be the admiral’s daughter. When the admiral himself appears, all their plans are compromised. The scientist runs into his old fiancée, who is now engaged to a pompous windbag. The noose tightens on the schemers: a blaze of signal lights and counter espionage brings the curtain down on a peak of hilarity and innocent resolution.
