When theatrical agent Sterling, a ladies' man known for signing his latest paramours onto his agency's talent roster, returns to New York from a trip to Europe, he tells his more down-to-earth partner Lawson that he has hired a beautiful Neopolitan acrobat he saw onstage in Italy. However, when Tina Bambinetti arrives in their office, Sterling is shocked to find that in person, she is plain, unkempt, and badly-dressed. Crushed by Sterling's dismissive treatment, Tina climbs back into the office through the transom and performs acrobatics that almost destroy the place, and her spunk impresses Lawson. Later, Papa Bambinetti is convinced by scheming press agent Pepper that Tina would have a promising career in motion pictures if she just visited a "beauty hospital." Despite Tina's fears that the imposing beauticians will hurt her, she undergoes a complete transformation and emerges, to everyone's surprise, as a beautiful, well-dressed young woman. Lawson falls in love, but Tina is enjoying her new life and cannot decide between him and her career. One night, when Tina sees Lawson with another woman at the roof garden of her hotel, she angrily confronts them, then packs her bags to return to Italy. Lawson stops her before she boards her ship by explaining that the woman was merely another client.
