A dull sea drama with the lifeless texture of something tossed off to fulfil a quota. Chunky Alan Hale stars as a military sea captain who finds himself involved in a financial scam after he is drummed out of the service, while Laura La Plante is the beneficiary of a will which her sneaky lawyer Clarence Wilson has designs on. It was to be Hale's last starring role before settling into a prolific career as a character actor, and it's no surprise that his status declined if this is an example of the kind of movie he was fronting. It would also be silent star La Plante's last US role for 15 years. Comic relief is supplied by the God-awful Claud 'Silly Arse' Allister.
