Synopsis

Phyllis Dale, a feature writer on a newspaper, keeps secret the fact that she is the mother of an 18-year-old daughter. This girl, "Bobby," who is a regular jazz baby, is expelled from an exclusive boarding school and returns home, posing as Phyllis' sister. Bobby starts seeing Donald Austin, a wealthy philanderer, and simultaneously falls in love with Lawrence Emmett, her mother's sweetheart. Bobby becomes involved in a scandal, and Phyllis assumes the appearance of guilt in order to save her daughter's reputation. Bobby is greatly chastened and accepts the proposal of Roger Hillman, the easygoing editor of Phyllis' paper. Lawrence and Phyllis clear up their misunderstandings and return to their former intimacy.
