Summary
Marcy is marrying an admiral tomorrow, but all she talks about tonight is Doug, the guy she used to go with. She and her mother prepare for the wedding - when in from the apartment balcony comes Doug - to abduct his girl before she marries the admiral. Well, it turns out that they are still in love - and more important, there is no admiral bridegroom. Marcy's mother had set up the whole ruse to get Doug to act and marry her daughter. But - mother goes out and gets spiffed and in walks a real admiral with the same name to marry Marcy! He is actually an actor mother hired - and since she got spiffed she forgot to cancel. Naturally there's a lot of confusion and just as naturally it all turns out all right. A great success at dinner theatres.
