Kay, trapped in a dull rural town, meets handsome, rich Bob Dakin during a drunken night. He asks for directions, drags her out, and impulsively proposes marriage. Kay consents, but sober Bob regrets it. His strict parents force a six‑month sham marriage to avoid scandal, then divorce afterward. Though Bob resents her, Kay hopes he'll change.
