After a little explaining about what’s going on here, we start the series with a witty short from the dawn of talkies. With too much romantic poetry bouncing around in his head, a college student visits the office of his harried dad (Edward Everett Horton) to make a play for his faithful secretary. But she has her own ideas – to her boss’ surprise.
