In order to follow a girl to whom he has been attracted, Jack Armitage embarks on an ocean voyage, using the ticket and assuming the name of a friend who was ordered to take the trip for his health. On the liner, his every attempt to make contact with the girl is thwarted by a male nurse who insists that he remain in his bed and subsist on a diet of goat's milk. But Jack manages to escape from his cabin and in so doing unwittingly assists in the capture of jewel thieves. This act puts him in a favorable light with the girl, the male nurse, and everyone else aboard.
