Based on a story tailor-made for the pair, the plot deals with a beautiful Austrian refugee who is given the alternative of marrying ;m American citizen and thus obtaining a quota number, or being deported* to her native Austria. Preferring the former she proposes marriage to Stewart, a pennilessyoung author. Through a purely business arrangement, the marriage' ts to give Miss Lamarr her number and, in return, Stewart is to have his living expenses paid until he-, can sell one of his novels.
