Undercover Maisie

Sassy Maisie Ravier (Ann Sothern) is on her way from LA to NYC for a job. She has trouble and an old lady helps her out. The old lady is driving her husband's car to New York and offers her a ride. It turns out to be a con when the old lady drives away with her suitcases and valuables. While reporting to the LAPD, Lt. Paul Scott (Barry Nelson) sees her as a great potential undercover agent. She quickly rushes through the police academy before being sent into the criminal world.

The police academy is a silly concept but it is silly fun. It actually reminds me of Police Academy. The story isn't that different. It would make more sense if she caught the old lady in the act and arrested her. In that way, Scott would be doubly impressed with her abilities. The police academy is fun. The undercover part is less fun. Maybe there is a way to make that part sillier. This is the last Maisie.
