The plant is part of the estate of the late David Gale, and much to everyone's surprise the heir is his daughter, debutante Linda Gale. Marie Wall, Linda's aunt, serves as Linda's proctor. During Linda's tour of the plant, some gears break, nearly killing Dutch Fulmer, a foreman who is wrongfully blamed for the accident. Mr. Spencer Allen, the office manager who wants the plant to go bankrupt, convinces Linda to give the overworked men a holiday. However, they resent the loss of pay, and know it is repairs that are truly needed. Tim only continues to work at Gale in order to teach Linda the business he has worked at since he was thirteen. After rescuing a man from being boiled by a broken furnace, Tim quits, leaving behind Blister, a lad he was trying to educate. Allen orders George Billings to substitute high-carbon, poor quality steel on the Harmon order, the last major company still using the Gale Works.

- DirectorCharles VidorStarsGeorge BancroftHelen BurgessJohn TrentDr. Daniel Norris, resident physician at Stanwood Hospital, is engaged to the president's daughter, Catherine Stanwood. He has been diligently experimenting to find a cure for polio and neglects his fiance because of this. When he and other physicians refuse to operate on a young woman because her physician is late in arriving, nurse Ruth Hanlon accuses Dan, Dr. Ellery Stanwood and Dr. Anson Ludlow of negligence, even though she knows it is against medical ethics to take over another doctor's case without his permission. Dan is forced to fire Ruth because of her outspokenness, but she leaves on friendly terms with him, and he records her parting words in his diary. One day, family doctor Clem Driscoll brings in a charity case, Michael Fielding, an eleven-year-old boy, who has a gift for playing the violin. Dan makes the initial diagnosis, and the case is taken by Ludlow. Ludlow is called away to treat a wealthy patron of the hospital the day that Michael is scheduled for surgery, and although Dan believes that the boy will suffer if the surgery is postponed, he does not interfere. Before he leaves the hospital to join Catherine at the opera one night, he sees the patient over whom Ruth lost her job wheeled out of her room, dead, and goes to visit Ruth at her manicurist job. She is touched by his concern. Three days later, Michael goes into surgery, but the infection has spread too far, and he loses the use of his arm. Mrs. Fielding files suit against Ludlow and the hospital for criminal negligence, and Dan loses his job because he agrees to testify on her behalf. As Dan reluctantly packs up his office and leaves his research lab, Catherine announces that she will leave him if he does not change his position, but, already a little drunk, he does not budge. He arrives at Ruth's apartment completely drunk, and vowing his love for her, falls asleep on the couch. Ruth and Dan go to work with Driscoll, who is inundated with cases of infantile paralysis, or poliomyelitis, as an epidemic sweeps the city. Frustrated by his inability to truly help the children, Dan begs local hospitals to allow him to continue his research for a cure, but he is refused. Desperate, he agrees to testify on behalf of the hospital when Stanwood offers to reopen his position. During the trial, Mrs. Fielding becomes overwrought when she hears Dan's testimony, and grabbing a policeman's gun, shoots Dan. Catherine returns to Dan, but in a stupor from his operation, Dan calls out Ruth's name, and Catherine leaves. Dan recovers from his injury and returns to work, as does Ruth, whom he has married. His latest entry in his diary is that Ludlow operated on Michael Fielding with complete success.

She and her guardian, Spaulding, look through her few remaining assets and discover her ownership of "Prescott's Mammoth Carnival." Spaulding tells her that her late father's love of adventure led him to organize the carnival that, while profitable in its early years, has been a steady money-loser of late. The two decide to examine the carnival first-hand. Seeing the carnival in shambles, Spaulding realizes that its manager, Bert MacGregor, has been deliberately wrecking the carnival. He demotes Bert and promotes Art Calhoun in his place. Bert, stuck with merely running his gambling games, swears revenge. Intrigued by the carnival, Marion takes a job incognito as Art's secretary. The two, though attracted to each other, have numerous temperamental clashes, brought on by their two dogs, "Kiki" and "Missouri." While playing an engagement designed to raise money for a veterans' group, Art discovers that Bert has been fixing the game wheel. The two fight, with Art knocking out Bert. Returning to his henchmen, Bert once again swears his revenge. After collecting the receipts, Art is mugged on his way to the veterans' group, and the money is stolen. After a search of the carnival, the money box is found in Marion's suitcase in the tent of Professor Sylva, for whom she acts as a magician's assistant. Art confesses to the crime to cover for Marion, but the two end up in jail. A telegram arrives, establishing Marion as the owner of the carnival and the two are released, but Art is angered by Marion's deception. As the constable begins to fingerprint all the carnival people in search for the real thief, Bert and his gang realize they are on the spot.

- DirectorJohn BrahmStarsOtto KrugerDouglass MontgomeryJulie BishopLaw school graduate Paul Maddox, adopted son of Senator Robert Maddox, accepts an offer to join the law firm of William "Bill" Mellon, brilliant but unscrupulous criminal attorney. Mrs. Maddox is actually Paul's real mother, although neither the Senator nor Paul know it, and Bill Mellon is his father. Yes, it is one of "those" plots. Paul is at first critical of Mellon's sharp practices, but he relents when Ann McItyre convinces him it's all within the law, a fact most law school graduates would have learned in law school. Gambler Georgie Evans comes to Mellon and tells him he has just killed Harrison, another underworld character, and insists it was in self defense. Mellon coaches Evans in how to tell his story to the police, then sends him to police headquarters to give himself up, and then assigns Paul to follow up on the case. While Evans and Paul are on separate routes to the police station, Evans stops by Harrison's and kills him under circumstances corresponding with Mellon's fool-proof alibi version already supplied before the act. Truly a good example of why it is best to consult an attorney before committing a rash act. Mellon learns of this post-dated action but, for a large sum of money from Evans, agrees to have his firm represent him and assigns Paul the task. Paul, of course, wins Evans an acquittal. Paul later learns that the killing was committed after Evans had retained Mellon and quits the firm. Paul's moral snit does not extend past the point of allowing his adopted-father's influence getting him appointed Assistant District Attorney. Paul begins a probe against malpractice in the law profession, and Mellon hires Mitchell to dig up scandal on state officials sponsoring the probe. Mitchell does this even better than Mellon anticipated, especially when he comes back with the truth about Paul actually being Mrs. Maddox' own son. When Mitchell refuses to give up the papers with the proof, he and Mellon struggle and Mitchell dies from a shot from his own gun. Mellon is charged with murder and Paul is the prosecutor. Will Paul send his real Pa to jail for life?

Since the town is also noted for a place for obtaining quick marriages on the Mexico side, Mark obtains the job of pilot on "The Honeymoon Express." He does not realize that he has been recognized as a G-Man by "Hot Cake" Joe, operator of a sandwich stand and an informant for the smugglers. Reporter Nancy Rawlings, assigned to the airport on the American side of the border, sees Mike running the matrimonial express in his flamboyant uniform, and thinks he is ridiculous enough to make a good story. Her suspicions are aroused when he refuses to be photographed. She is further convinced he is a smuggler when she sees him accepting money from Kurt Feldon, suspected head of the smugglers. Feldon has accepted Mike as a genuine pilot for wedding parties and is paying him to steer customers to his café. Learning the truth from Joe, Feldon orders his henchman/flyer Blast Reardon to get rid of Mike. Blast, with a gang moll as his accomplice, charters Mike to fly them across the border to get married.
