Harry von Zell wants to spend his anniversary with his wife, Christine McIntyre, but boss Emil Sitka insists that he go to a convention with him. After Harry has left, Christine and her mother discover a torrid fan letter from Jean Willes and set out in hot pursuit in this typically violent Columbia short comedy.
It was the last short Harry made for Columbia; he had bigger fish to fry in his work with the George Burns-Gracie Allen show and other tv enterprises, and appearing in the lightly altered scripts from older Columbia shorts was no way to advance his career.
The director of this short was Edward Bernds, who had started out as a sound engineer and switched to directing shorts and comedy programmers in the mid-1940s. He held the distinction of being being nominated for Best Director by accident; when the Frank SInatra-Bing Crosby-Grace Kelly musical HIGH SOCIETY garnered a raft of nominations, Bernds was sent a certificate for directing the movie; in actuality, it was an identically named Bowery Boys movie. He proudly displayed the certificate for the rest of his long life.
