After completing their engagement at a Chicago nightclub, Rusty Wells and his combo plan to spend Easter week in Fort Lauderdale entertaining college students.  Big Frank, the owner of the nightclub, decides to waive his option to hold the group in Chicago when he learns that his daughter Valerie plans to vacation in Fort Lauderdale.

He sends the group to Florida with the understanding that they keep a close watch on his daughter.  While in Fort Lauderdale, Rusty and the combo find that most of their time is devoted to keeping Valerie out of trouble.  To relieve the other band members of their commitment to Big Frank, Rusty offers to assume responsibility for her.

The two are happy until Valerie learns of Rusty's bargain with her father, whereupon she goes on a wild drinking spree and ends up in jail.  Her father posts bail for her, and soon all is forgiven as Valerie and Rusty are reunited.
