Plot
Bobby and Rims are co-workers in a company owned by Adolph Mengle Sr. But their path to romance has two big impediments: she is the sole support of her lazy family—who would rather stay in their apartment and complain about sports and "the European situation"—and the boss' spoiled son, who is trying to break them up so he can marry her himself.
