Plot

Jingle writer Ty Bruce and secretary Pam Thayer have grand ambitions; Ty wishes to become a serious songwriter and Pam a singer. Advertising agent Lynn Stafford tries to attract Ty's romantic interest, while Pam's roommate Sherry Lane offers to help her audition one of Ty's tunes for the Earl Carroll Sketchbook, a big New York revue.

Carroll's stage manager Rick Castle offers Pam a job, liking her voice but also mistakenly believing that she had written the song. After Pam catches Ty kissing Lynn, Pam feigns amnesia. Ty gradually realizes how much he cares for Pam, and both are hired by the revue.
