As George gets home, he finds Gracie on the phone to fellow Irishman, Pat O’Brian. Her latest scheme involves a beauty pageant with Heddy Lamar and Tootsie Sagwell. How much of a chance will Tootsie have at being Queen of the Fleet? Bill Goodwin is on hand to give his opinion, and the sponsor message.
Jimmy Cash sings, My Heart Tells Me. The best hope for Tootsie to win the beauty contest is for Heddy to drop out. Can Gracie get her to do it? Though she tries for the direct approach, Gracie gets sidetracked in fishing for compliments. Will Heddy be put off by the Tootsie Sagwell group of voters? Heddy isn’t going for it, and wants to be Queen of the Fleet herself. Will an emotional appeal about Tootsie’s feeble father help? Enter George.
Felix Mills plays, Either Too Young or Too Old.
Gracie has her hands full in arranging the outcome of the contest. Bill Goodwin comes over, but will he be able to do anything with Heddy Lamar? Or just get to the sponsor message? When Heddy wants to the pitiful George, Gracie wants him to keep his distance. Is Heddy falling in love with him?
