Synopsis

Aunt Mary Watkins, who is being taken advantage of by her nephew Gus, believes that her other nephew, Jack, is studying to become a successful physician, though in fact he spends all his time and money perfecting a racing car motor. When Aunt Mary decides to visit him, he converts his domicile into a "sanitarium" in which his friends pretend to be patients. Jack and his chum, Mel, accidentally crash into the car of Judge Hopper, Aunt Mary's former sweetheart, and they are reunited at the "sanitarium"; on a trial run, the boys are arrested for speeding, while Martha, Aunt Mary, and Gus are arrested in a cafe raid. Jack is dismissed in time to enter the race with the help of Aunt Mary, who substitutes as his mechanic. Finding a new lease on life, Aunt Mary marries the judge, and Jack wins Martha, the pretty nurse.
