Actor
Soundtrack

McGrath publishes children's book and Uncle Bump is one of the best sellers, but Greg, who is Uncle Bump, drinks too much and hasn't started his next book. Martha won a contest to illustrate the book and the first thing Greg does is get her soused. To keep her there to illustrate, John gets a juvenile delinquent named Danny to play his son and show how much pressure he is under. The ploy works at first, but Greg's heart was broken by Tillie, and Martha may be the girl who makes him forget all about her.

Quotes
In 1970: "I have never regretted leaving the picture business and am very grateful to my mother for taking me away from it. I enjoyed the first few years of acting in movies but I certainly don't miss it. In fact, when I've had offers to return a few times, I wasn't even tempted. There may be a better way to live than on a lake with a couple of cows, a wife, and children but being a movie star is not one."
