Synopsis

Carefree Ozark Mountain girl Cynthy Quimby rebels against her grandfather's decision that she must marry overweight schoolteacher Tobe Plunkett. Cynthy persuades disreputable villager Jeff Peters to break up the wedding ceremony, then Cynthy's grandfather demands that she marry the first man she meets, who happens to be Arthur Calloway, a stranded aviator from St. Louis. Arthur only consents to the marriage at the point of a gun. Left alone in a cabin, Cynthy locks Arthur in a closed room, but he manages to escape repeatedly, and each time repairs his airplane. He finally flies away after three days, but back at home he realizes he misses Cynthy. She soon arrives at his home, and Arthur and Cynthy become husband and wife in earnest.
