24 horas sin mentir (1941)
El agente de bolsa T.T. Ralston ha prometido a su sobrina Gwen el doble si consigue reunir 20.000 dólares para la caridad. Sin embargo, T.T se confabula con todos sus amigos para que estos se nieguen a darle a Gwen más dinero del que ya ha conseguido, 10.000 dólares. Gwen se reúne en secreto con el nuevo socio de T.T., Steve Bennett, y le da los 10.000 dólares para que este le doble la cantidad invirtiéndolos. Más tarde, en una discusión con T.T., un socio de negocios y un cliente, acerca de la honestidad en el mundo de los negocios, Steve apuesta los 10.000 dólares a que él puede decir la verdad durante 24 horas. Después de haber aceptado una invitación para pasar un fin de semana en un barco de T.T., Steve se somete a 24 horas de interrogatorios para intentar que este mienta y, consecuentemente, pierda la apuesta y, con ello, el dinero de Gwen.
