Plots(1)
Betsy (Shirley), an orphan adopted by a kind hotel manager (Edward Ellis) who rents rooms out to down-on-their-luck entertainers. When the owner of the hotel (Edna Mae Oliver) complains about the noise her show biz tenants make and the back rent they owe her, she threatens to have the hotel closed and Betsy sent back to the orphanage. (official distributor synopsis)
