Young Eve Lorraine Jan Wiley is an exotic dancer at the Club Cezanne in New York who is arrested for indecency while performing Salomes dance one night, when her manager Dan Mac McGrath Phil Warren is trying to make a greater impression and get her some publicity. In court Eve meets a bailbondsman, Gus Hoffman Eddie Dunn, who bails her out of jail. They talk to about Eves background, where she mentions that her parents died when a theater collapsed somewhere twentythree years ago, which makes Gus suspect that she is the rightful heir of the J.P. Sardam hair tonic empire and estate. There is a 1,000 reward for the one who finds the missing daughter of the Sardam spouses, who died during a Colorado theater collapse, which matches Eves age and story.Hoffman talks to the lawyer handling the inheritance and reward, Thomas W. Campbell Emmett Vogan, and he assures him that he indeed has found the missing child. The lawyer tells Hoffman that Eve will inherit millions of dollars. Hoffman brings the great news back to Eve, but her agent Mac warns her to trust Hoffman. ........
