Summary Jerry, the son of a bank depositor who was cheated out of his savings, is sent to prison after he robs the bank of the exact sum his father lost. Captain Bill Bourne lives on the grounds of the prison along with his wife, their daughter Bonnie and an adopted daughter, Ellen. When the Bourne's gardener is paroled, Bonnie arranges for Jerry to take over the work. Bonnie then asks Jerry to sing at an upcoming dance.
