Synopsis
Kelly, a sailor on shore leave, meets Alice at a dancehall, and she takes his flirtatious behavior seriously. When her parents object to the relationship, Alice leaves home to join Kelly, causing him to reconsider his position; and he sees to it that she is properly installed in a hotel just as his liberty expires. After a cruise, Kelly returns and is happily united with the girl.
