Plot

Brooks Mason, a top movie star, is tired of being in the public eye. He discovers that Hawaii-based businessman George Smith looks enough like him to be his twin. He arranges to switch places with Smith temporarily. When Mason steps into Smith's life, he finds himself in a tug-of-war between Smith's fiancée, and a dancer named Dorothy March, with whom he has fallen in love. Meanwhile, Smith discovers that being a movie star is not all that it is made out to be.

Joe Duffy, Mason's garralous manager, has not been informed of the switch. So when Smith gets fed up with the impersonation and tries to go back to Hawaii; Duffy has him put in a strait jacket for his own good. Luckily, the hotel doctor(Sig Ruman) suggests humoring him by taking him to Hawaii.

Smith arrives minutes before Duffy is to marry Cecelia, and the switch is made without the bride knowing it.

Millie De Grasse then arrives with HER lookalike sister, causing Duffy to faint dead away.
