But she buys shoes from him that afternoon and later forgives the deception. Robert Riggs, son of the owner, finds them dancing together. Andy resigns after Robert belittles him. Meantime an uncle of Andy's returns to town and calls on the bank for the purpose of establishing a $250,000 trust fund for Andy. Andy, however, has several accidents during the day with this unknown uncle always the goat. Andy visits the bank and the banker is pleased to loan him $10,000, much to Andy's amazement. On the way to a party, Andy's new car hits the uncle and the uncle goes to the banker at whose house the party is being given to cancel the trust fund. Andy is hounded by his creditors who demand the return of the ring Andy gave June. He leaves disgraced but the banker is unable to call the loan for 90 days. Andy, meanwhile starts a shoe store and sells his arch supporters which are a big hit. He is pushed by Riggs who wants him out of the way. June hires an actor to fake a fictitious offer for the supporters before the assembled creditors. But a real buyer appears and Andy unconsciously gets him up to a big price and sells when June outs him wise. The two are happy in their success.
