- Tired of her boyfriend's gambling, a young woman joins two vaudeville performers on a trek to Las Vegas to search for millionaires to marry.
- When boyfriend Vince Nichols won't give up his gambling, Abby joins vaudeville partners Carol and June in a trek to Las Vegas searching for millionaires, followed by playboy Ted Lansing with a big crush on Abby. When the girls learn that uncle Felix Hoff is going broke with his casino, Abby accepts Ted because of his wealth. Arriving to halt the nuptials is Ted's banker cousin from Boston, Bennington, and an irate Vince.—Les Adams <longhorn1939@suddenlink.net>
- Despite not being sisters or any being named Dillon, Abby, Carol and June comprise a musical club act called the Dillon Sisters. When it comes to men, Abby is the romantic one, June the demure one, and Carol the cynical one, believing love can only last so long while money is forever. They have enjoyed their current stop performing at a Hollywood club not only because headliners Vince Nichols and Ted Lansing, a baritone and hoofer respectively, have incorporated them into their respective acts, but Vince and Abby have fallen in love, Abby expecting him eventually to pop the question. Vince has given up gambling, an inherent part of who he is, for her, or so he wants her to believe. When Abby finds out about his continued gambling, she breaks up with him. As such, Carol suggests they move the act to Las Vegas in search of three millionaire husbands, to which Abby and June agree. Following them to Vegas is Ted, the three and Ted who all have gigs at Abby's Uncle Felix Hoff's hotel and casino, The Golden Egg. What Ted did not tell them is that he is in love with Abby himself, that the reason he followed them. And what June has not told anyone is that she in turn is in love with Ted. These romantic entanglements get more complex when Vince too gets a gig in Las Vegas in hopes of reconciling with Abby, despite the greater temptations with gambling. The romantic complexities increase when one of the three "sisters" does get engaged to an old money Boston millionaire, the three who have to go through a charade to impress who they assume is the groom's stuffed shirt banker cousin, Bennington, who is coming to Vegas to provide his consent or not on behalf of the family. Factored into what happens is Uncle Felix's own problems, including losing big money in the casino as gamblers have been on a hot streak, and an associate of a former business partner attempting what could be considered a hostile takeover, hostile in the form of threats to use his knives with which he is an expert, unless he gets what he feels is rightfully his.—Huggo
