But Dan becomes the bane of the foreman's existence, in part because Dan would rather spend his time with Dolly to who he is attracted.

Interactions with Dolly's visiting brother - a hosiery salesman - who Dan mistakenly believes is Dolly's boyfriend, a pair of inflatable legs, and an angry foreman who was fired because of Dan's mistakes in the garage lead to one misadventure after another for Dan.
