Synopsis: Jimmy Tallant, the son of a U.S. senator who is running for his third term in office, picks up an attractive hitchhiker and speeds to the airport at her request after she says that it is a matter of life or death. They arrive just in time for her to board her plane, and when she thanks Jerry for helping her make the junior prom in time, he is exasperated. Jimmy is ticketed for speeding and taken to a traffic judge, who revokes his license. When the senator’s opponent, wealthy newspaper chain owner Atwood, learns from his ace reporter, Larry Deering, about Jimmy’s arrest, he orders Larry to manufacture jams for Jimmy to get caught in, so that it will look like the senator cannot even take care of his own son.
