- Plot: The staff at Drake's Department Store is exasperated because Mr. Drake, the store owner and president, has let his adult son Freddy run rampant at the store despite knowing that he is a troublemaker. Freddy has made some unilateral changes at the store without his father's knowledge. Some such changes are to replace many of the floor staff with a bevy of chorus girls, to convert the nursery into a nightclub, and to make bargain shopping a spectator sport. As such, Drake senior, a conservative man who believes in tradition, decides personally to investigate. Which Drake will win by making the other see the world of the store through his eyes?
