Charlie is a free spirit who travels the world, generally via boat, doing odd jobs along the way. Doris is worried about him because his carefree life has not led to any stability or future prospects. Doris, who knows that Charlie has many talents which he demonstrates as he gets her out of a traffic ticket, tries to persuade him to settle in San Francisco and lead a more steady life. Because of those skills with the police, Doris believes he would make a great salesman, and arranges for Charlie to get a job as an ad salesman for the magazine despite he not being sure he really wants such a job. But he does end up being a success in the job itself. The question becomes whether success in the job makes for a happier Charlie or Doris. Written by Huggo See less
