- Summary
- "Harry Miller is a 'natural-born mixer' while his wife Grace is a homebody, distressed by her husband's errant ways. Grace finds a kindred spirit in Tommy Robbins, who lives in an adjoining bungalow and whose wife Letty is devoted to the cabarets. Harry admires Letty as much as Tommy admires Grace, and suggests to his neighbor that they arrange an exchange of wives. The wives overhear their hudsbands' plotting to obtain divorces and, still in love with the men they married, conceive a counterplan of a week of platonic trial marriages. Over the seven-day period, the wives return to their respective spouses."--From The American Film Institute catalog of motion pictures produced in the United States : feature films, 1911-1920 (Berkeley : University of California Press, ©1988), page 855.
