The outlandishly funny W.C Fields stars as Mr. Stubbins in this quilted patchwork of nave tenderness and comedy. The slyly humorous Mrs. Wiggs (Pauline Lord) tries her hand at matchmaking by paring the entertaining Mr. Fields with a neighbouring, fluttering spinster (Zasu Pitts) with very amusing results indeed! Mrs. Wiggs, awaiting the return of her husband from the Klondike, where he has long ago gone to search for gold, busies herself with her five little moppets and always remains eternally optimistic despite her sorrowful circumstances.
