Peter Forbes, a wealthy American in Paris, bets he can live without money for a month and still win society beauty Looloo Carroll. Disguised as a guide, he courts her while navigating nightclub celebrity May De Vere, meddling socialite Violet Hildegarde, and the well-meaning interference of friends Joyce Wheeler and Michael Cummins. The charade careens through cafés, racetracks, and a masked ball until Peter must decide between winning the wager and telling the truth to secure a genuine future with Looloo.
