Plot
Professional acrobats Bert and Johnny are the best of friends. They are also confirmed women-hating bachelors. When an injury suddenly sidelines the act, they move to a boarding house that caters to theater folk until they are ready to return to work. There, they meet one of the residents, Jackie, a girl who wants to also become an acrobat. Both Bert and Johnny fall for her and become rivals for her, eventually splitting up their act.
