fewer physical threats
6 August 2019
Bill Reardon (Melvyn Douglas) investigates a string of thefts at a jewelery store. He suspects the clerk Charles Crenshaw. Charles hires Sally Reardon (Virginia Bruce) to investigate someone following him. The combative couple ends up on opposite sides of the same case.

It's the second in the series and the wife role changes actress. Thankfully, there are fewer physical threats and she gets a few licks in of her own. The balance is more fun. It's an improvement no matter the era. The screwball comedy gets confused. It doesn't really matter that much. I don't care about the case. It's fine.
