Plot
It is the night before the birthday of single child Barbara Webster. Her spoiled and unaffectionate mother tells her she will not be in town and she does not want her daughter to go with her where she's invited. Barbara, called also Babe, is quite disappointed about the coldness of her mother and relies on her father. Unfortunately, her mother tells her, he will be out of town as well. Barbara is left alone with her sadness about her parents not caring for her. That is what makes her call a friend Eddie to organize something for the evening. Eddie then asks Babe if she could "dig up a live one for" for his friend, Bill Evans, who is there with him. She answers, only the dead have to be dug up, and she will see if she can find something "dainty but dumb".
She calls an old friend, Claire Elliott. She would love to get out, but her father is rather severe and doesn't want her to go to night clubs. Babe nonetheless goes personally to talk with father Elliott and manages to persuade him. In the night club the two gentlemen leave the girls for some minutes to go and say hello to old friends. Meantime a woman, Flo Russell, comes to their table and tells them she works for Mr. Gilman, who owns an exclusive gown salon in New York and would be glad to have them as models in his shop.
The boys come back with the intention to go to another party. Claire is forced to go with the group. On the way they are caught by police and Claires father has to bring them home. He makes her a speech and forbids her to exit home. With Babe they decide to leave home and go to New York to work for Gilman. They are hired by Gilman but they soon discover that he has another racket going on in his shop: blackmailing rich customers photographing them in suspicious situations. The story evolves ...
