Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Afraid to tell his pregnant wife, Francie (Joyce Meadows), that he has lost his entire 80-dollar paycheck in a poker game, stock clerk Irving Randall (John Smith) concocts a story about being mugged and robbed on his way home. As a "convincer" for his wife, Irving goes so far as to report the faux robbery to the police. But things get sticky when the cops arrest a man answering to Irving's description -- which of course he made up out of whole cloth -- and insist that Irving press charges.
