Synopsis:

Joel McCrea plays a hotshot reporter who thinks he knows everything and Jean Arthur plays an actress who puts one over on him. It turns out the financier of her play is a notorious art collector who steals what he can't buy and the play he's financing is just a front for a job he is planning.

With his knowledge of psychology and criminal behavior, reporter George Melville (Joel McCrea) is able to accurately anticipate specific crimes, incurring the jealousy of his fellow journalists. After meeting actress Claire Peyton (Jean Arthur), George grows suspicious of Blackton Gregory (Reginald Owen), the producer of her new play. Realizing that Blackton is actually a presumed-dead thief named Belaire, George stakes his reputation on predicting the next crime.
