Ann's five years of being an independent woman actress begins when she meets Donald Hollinger, a magazine reporter, in one of her in-between jobs as a candy clerk. She gets a job in a perfume commercial where she plays a woman who gets kidnapped by two robbers. Donald happens to see the act and thinks that Ann is in real trouble, so he saves her only to get serious flack from her. But with that incident aside, Ann and Donald find out that they really belong together.

Ann has her toe stuck in a bowling ball at a very unopportune moment.

On a game show, Ann is asked to find out about her neighbors. No one wants to speak up, so Ann throws a party to invite everyone until her purse gets stolen.

Donald's friends throw him a stag party - which almost costs him his engagement to Ann.
