A pretty young bank clerk, Ruth Brock (Nancy Carroll), attracts the young men in the small town of Marysville. Rich playboy Romer Sheffield (Cary Grant) is no exception, even though he has Camille (Rita La Roy) staying openly at his mansion, scandalizing the locals. Jealous, Camille soon leaves.
Ruth, however, is all business whenever Romer tries to become better acquainted with her at the bank. She agrees to go on a date on Saturday with fellow employee Conny Billup (Edward Woods). Romer invites Conny and his crowd to party at his estate, offering free food and drink, just so he can spend some time with Ruth. They stay long enough for Romer to take Ruth on a long walk and have a heartfelt conversation.
The gang then heads to a lakeshore dance hall. Conny gets Ruth alone on a nighttime boat ride, but she jumps ashore to avoid his unwanted pawing of her. Out of spite, he leaves her behind. She has to walk to Romer's estate. Conny eventually finds her there, but she does not want to see him, and Romer makes him drive away without her. Romer sends Ruth home in his chauffeured car; she is seen arriving home early in the morning by Eva Randolph (Lilian Bond), the daughter of an important bank executive.
Inside, Ruth is pleasantly surprised to find childhood friend and geologist Bill Fadden (Randolph Scott) in the kitchen. He has returned to do some surveying after seven years away. Bill makes it clear he is in love with her.

However, Conny maliciously has Eva invite Romer to the dance hall where Ruth and Bill are. Once Romer grasps the situation, he graciously tries to bow out, but Bill hears the vicious gossip and breaks off the engagement. By the next morning, Bill has reconsidered, but she informs him that while the stories were not true the night before, they are now in the morning. She spent the night with Romer. Romer picks her up and tells her they will get married in New York.

Biography of director George Stevens by his son. It includes clips from many of his films with commentary by the actors and by directors such as Frank Capra, John Huston and Alan Pakula, among others. Also included are Stevens's war "home movies," found only after his death. Assigned by Eisenhower to film the war in Europe, Stevens used the opportunity to produce, at the same time, the only color footage ever shot in World War II. There is breathtaking film of D-Day and its aftermath; the triumphal march through Paris of the Allied liberators; and the unspeakable horrors of Dachau. This is what Goya might have done with a movie camera. On a more mundane level is a segment on Cecil B. DeMille's 1950 underhanded attempt to oust Joseph L. Mankiewicz, then president, from the Directors' Guild, which Stevens was instrumental in blocking.

美国海军海之虎号潜艇即将退役，海军少将雪曼早早地来到潜艇上，翻看航海日志。看着自己当年的记录，昔日情景仍历历在目。将军思绪万千，浮想联翩……. 　　太平洋战争初期，美国海军在东南亚步步退守。海之虎号潜艇在港口几乎被日军飞机炸沉，雪曼艇长（卡里·格兰特饰）的任务是在两周之内完成平时需要两个月才能做完的事——把完全失去航行和战斗能力的海之虎号修好并撤退，但时局艰难，海之虎号连最起码的补给都很难弄到。海军上尉霍顿前来报到，此人无论穿着打扮或言谈举止，都象个十足的纨绔子弟，而且有关潜艇专业的知识他一概不懂，雪曼艇长觉得自己又多了一重麻烦。 　　霍顿上尉主动请缨之下，当上了海之虎号的军需官。谁知这正是最能发挥他长才的职位。他妥为运筹，使海之虎号的军需补给呈现一派欣欣向荣的景象，很快就拔锚起航了，而基地指挥官则忙着追查搬空基地仓库及他本人办公室的窃贼。 　　霍顿上尉是个很有办法的人，海之虎号起航时引擎都没修好，他雇来当地巫师作法，帮助潜艇顺利离岸；中途停靠地找不到补给，他开设赌场允许当地官兵拿基地的物资来兑换筹码。他也是个好心的人，对于帮助过他寻找补给的人，他都会有所回报，因而海之虎号上多了一个犯过军法的囚犯厨师，多了一群美女军医，多了赌场老板大肚皮的婆娘们及一只产奶的山羊。看在他搜罗军需品的才能份上，这些奇奇怪怪的人和事雪曼艇长都勉强接受下来。 　　美女军医们上船后，雪曼艇长的烦恼更多了：船员们纷纷装病，以便享受温柔的呵护；一名女军医太过“层峦叠嶂”，雪曼艇长不得不下令当女士们通过狭窄的艇中走道时，男士们要自动消失；同样还是这名女军医，无意中按到了鱼雷发射钮，致使一枚鱼雷没有打中8000吨的日军油轮，却冲上沙滩击毁了一辆卡车…… 　　海之虎号需要防锈漆，霍顿上尉只找到一些白色和红色的漆，从此太平洋上出现了一艘粉红色的潜艇。美、日双方都不知道本方有这样的潜艇，各自下令：一经发现粉红色潜艇，立即击沉。 　　海之虎号与一艘美国军舰遭遇了，还没来得及打招呼，炮弹便飞了过来，雪曼艇长命令紧急下潜，可他出尽百宝都无法骗得军舰停扔深水炸弹，只因为潜艇上有初生婴儿的哭声帮军舰的声纳作定位。万分危急之中，霍顿上尉建议将女军医们的内衣用鱼雷发射管打上海面。此计果然生效，军舰指挥官一看那胸罩便断定日本女人不会有这么大的尺码。 　　海之虎号得救了！ 　　最后，霍顿上尉也当上了这艘“神奇潜艇”的艇长　。
