Plot Summary

Marshall “Mickey” Briggs (George Gobel) is a mild-mannered advertising executive at a prestigious New York agency, responsible for the all-important Doolittle Beer account. His life takes a spectacular turn when he marries Janice Blake (Diana Dors), a stunning British fashion model whose beauty turns heads wherever she goes. Mickey can scarcely believe his luck — but his happiness is short-lived.

The Doolittle Beer account is in trouble. The client, the demanding Frederick W. Sutton (Adolphe Menjou), is dissatisfied with the current campaign and threatens to take his business elsewhere. Mickey’s career hangs in the balance, and his boss expects him to devote every waking moment to saving the account. The pressure mounts as Mickey is forced to work around the clock, neglecting his beautiful new bride in the process.

Janice, feeling abandoned and unappreciated, begins to question whether Mickey married her or his job. Her frustration grows as Mickey cancels dinner dates, misses appointments, and arrives home exhausted and distracted. Meanwhile, other men are all too eager to keep Janice company, adding jealousy to Mickey’s mounting list of anxieties.

The comedy escalates as Mickey desperately tries to balance his crumbling marriage and his career-saving campaign, leading to a series of increasingly absurd misunderstandings, mistaken identities, and slapstick situations. With the help of his secretary Miss Anderson (Nita Talbot) and his loyal friend Eddie (William Redfield), Mickey hatches an outrageous plan that just might save both his marriage and the Doolittle Beer account — if everything goes exactly right, which of course it doesn’t.
