Cardigan decides to defend a homeless woman, June Perry, accused of “tapping at the window” and, after fitting her with a wedding ring he keeps in his pocket, frees her by noting the presence of said ring. He takes her home and, in a plot twist the Production Code would not allow, June stays there overnight. June leaves and Cardigan goes on a honeymoon bender for several days, alone.
