Signora per un giorno (1933)
La vecchia Annie, venditrice di mele negli ambienti equivoci di Broadway, mantiene sua figlia in un aristocratico collegio in Spagna. La fanciulla riceve un'offerta di matrimonio dal conte Romero. Annie si trova allora in una situazione imbarazzantissima perché la figlia Louise, dalla quale lei si è sempre fatta credere una signora dell'alta società, le ha annunciato una prossima visita con il fidanzato ed i genitori di lui. Ma uno dei suoi assidui compratori di mele, un avventuriero soprannominato "il Damerino", decide di aiutarla. La fa trasformare in una dama di gran classe, affitta per lei un appartamento e le mette accanto un marito di parata. Tutto è a posto e l'incontro si svolge senza incidenti. Tutto si conclude a meraviglia con la festa del fidanzamento ufficiale.
