synopsis
In this drama, two carneys, a card-sharp, and a peep-show performer find themselves booted out of the show and decide to team up -- platonically. Though the huckster constantly tries to romance the girl, she demurely rejects him. He comes to respect that, and she eventually comes to respect him.
