Dog walker, Norman Phiffier is in love with Barbara Tuttle, an elevator operator in her parents department store. Barbaras conniving mother, Phoebe disapproves of the couple and is determined to break up her daughters romance with the incompetent boob. With hidden ulterior motives, Phoebe hires Norman to work in her department store and despite the impossible requests of Mr. Quimby, the store manager; Norman manages to do an admirable job in his own slapstick manner. A film filled with great sight gags, includes a hilarious vacuum cleaner demonstration that naturally goes awry. This was the seventh (of eight) collaboration between Jerry Lewis and director Frank Tashlin (CINDERFELLA).
