Secretary Charmaine has an office admirer, Mike. He’s handsome, but is awkward, naïve, and inexperienced. Charmaine goes on vacation and Mike shows up as well, which irritates her. However, Charmaine discovers that outside the office he’s popular, competent, and romantic. It also turns out he’s a wealthy farmer who was only working in the office to learn business administration. Mike and Charmaine will wed.
