Inhaltsangabe: Edward Gibson (Robert Webber) has never been happier. Having just divorced Gloria, now his ex-wife, Edward wants to go out and celebrate. A month after the divorce, Edward's feelings have changed, as he's being wiped out by alimony payments, costing him more than $2,000 a month. A possible avenue of escape presents itself in the form of Carl Seabrook (Jeremy Slate). Carl proposes that he marry Gloria, thereby putting an end to the alimony, all for only $10,000. Gibson agrees, seeing the long-term benefits, and gives him $5,000, agreeing to pay the remainder the day after when the bank opens. As a special gift, he will add $500 bonus for a first-class honeymoon. Arriving at Gloria's apartment to present her with a wedding gift, Edward learns from the doorman that Gloria actually died of a heart-attack the night before, while in the company of Carl Seabrook. Edward phones to his apartment only to hear from his maid that he has just left on a honeymoon...
