Occasional Trouble

Overview

Peter's mother sees Greta kissing another man and confides in Mr. Brahms, who hires detective Will Yates. Peter's secretary Miss Wilson tips him off to the situation. Greta refuses to give up her date that night so they go to a movie where they plan to ditch Yates, who sits behind them. The next day he goes to Greta's apartment and tells Greta he knows the truth and wants money to buy his silence. Peter finds out Yates has a jealous wife and he and Greta try to get Yates in a compromising photo. This involves a last minute discovery that Peter's camera is out of film and a druggist who has a difficult time counting. The man-in-the-middle views the action while playing poker with a friend who cheats.
