Unable to take his duties seriously, Eddie runs afoul of his commanding officer, but also wins the heart of peasant schoolteacher Sophie Semenoff. A series of merry chases result in Eddie's marriage to Sophie, followed by a brief sentence in the guard house. Eddie returns to the U.S. with his new bride, who is met with disapproval by her snobbish mother-in-law. Sophie is then kidnapped by Soviet agents, but Eddie soon comes to the rescue. Afterward, Sophie reveals that she is a member of the deposed Russian aristocracy, and Mrs. Ramson happily accepts her into the family. Written by AFI See less
