Aboard the H.M.S. Majestic crossing the Atlantic, Snively Swine disguises himself as Sir Reginald Rottentot and, with the help of his sidekick Archnia, attempts to kidnap wealthy young heiress Merry Ann Sweet. Merry Ann falls for the handsome Cary, a waiter, but he follows the ship’s rules and won’t become involved with a passenger. Flappers Ritzi, Mitzy and Ditzy try to help Merry Ann attract Cary’s attention while he is trying to avoid the clutches of Arachnia. Hedda Hooper (gossip columnist), Mary Pickaxe (aging movie star), Bea Goode (Merry Ann’s aunt and chaperone), Capt. Barney Kuhl, Skeet Suiter (entertainment director) add to the humor and fun. Sgt. Willy Ketchum always on the lookout for a crook humorously can’t see the one right in front of him. Willy’s wife, Wanda, just wants him to relax and enjoy the trip with her. Can Cary avoid the clutches of Arachnia? Can he save Merry Ann from the evil Snively? Will Willy catch his man? You have to see it to find out. Full of great melodramatic humor with a strong villain and villainess.
