Jan Morrow (Doris Day) is an interior decorator who relies on her telephone for business. Brad Allen (Rock Hudson) is a songwriter who relies on his telephone for monkey business. Turns out that they both share the same party line. Yep, you saw it coming. Unknown to either of them, the Broadway producer whom Brad is writing for, Jonathan Forbes (Tony Randall), is as close to love with Doris Day as he was with his previous wives. Putting two and two together, Rock Hudson realizes that his party line antagonist is a blonde cutie.
Knowing that he does not have a chance with her if he reveals his true identity, he takes on the Texas persona as Rex Stetson.
Will this work?
Will Tony Randall find out?
Better still, will Doris Day find out the truth?
Will decorating sense prevail?
This could get ugly.
Look for the split-screen scenes while they are talking on the phone. And Doris gets a chance to sing.
