About This Show

The 1940’s comedy about a crude tycoon who brings his showgirl-mistress to Washington D.C. where he hopes to ‘buy’ a few congressmen with her charms. Unfortunately, her social and intellectual ignorance becomes a hindrance to his business prospects, so he hires a journalist to give her a crash course in history, politics and literature. Properly educated and presentable, she recognizes the crook for what he is worth and falls in love with her tutor
