Diamond cutter assistant Ambrose C. Park (Red Skelton) is always looking for his parents who left him as a baby on a park bench. He places an ad on his every birthday. Corrupt lawyer Remlick (James Whitmore) decides to trick him out of his life savings of $8k by bringing him a fake family. Emmily Drummon (Dorothy Stickney) and Duke Fargoh (George Mathews) play his fake parents. Maggie Drummon (Cara Williams) plays his fake sister. Remlick gets overshadowed by other con men who are looking to steal a big diamond.
This seems to have good potential for comedy. It has Red Skelton and a slightly left-of-center premise. It's a little quirky, but not really funny. Park is a hopeful idiot and a clueless romantic. He's an amiable enough character. I like the guy. The material could be funny, but it's a fine light comedy crime thriller.
