Synopsis
Ann Wharton, a mischievous pupil at the Bredwell Seminary, faces expulsion after a spoonful of cereal, which she flings at a schoolmate, lands in Mrs. Bredwell's face. When Ann sees her friend Tom Randall and his classmates playing football, she dresses in boys' clothing and joins them. After Mrs. Bredwell reprimands her, a misunderstanding occurs when Tom arrives with her clothes, and Mrs. Bredwell writes a letter to Ann's father to expel her. Ann leaves to intercept the letter, runs into Tom and arrives home with him. After Mr. Wharton sends Tom away, Ann disgraces the Whartons at a summer resort by appearing in a one-piece bathing suit and later impersonating a Russian ballet star. When Ann learns that her sister Olive wants to marry fortune hunter Gordon Trent, Ann compromises herself in Trent's room to save her sister. After Ann runs away and convinces Tom of her innocence, they marry and live in his bungalow. Olive runs off with Trent, but he is arrested for bigamy. When Mr. Wharton finds Ann, her antics have ceased and she is happily domesticated.
