They've picked up the cash; the question is will they live long enough to spend it?
After he jumps into some fishing nets during a suicide attempt, Jerry Bronson is rescued by has-been vaudevillians Willie Doyle and "The Great Elmer" Dugan and is convinced by them to adopt a child as a way to forget his romantic troubles. At the orphanage, Elmer and Willie adopt a little boy named Spanky, whose passion is breaking glass, but soon discover that Jerry has eloped with his girl friend. Although broke, Elmer and Willie care for Spanky in their dockside dive until two lawyers inform them that Spanky is an heir to a Kentucky fortune. Anxious to be rid of their responsibilities, the lawyers suggest that Willie and Elmer take Spanky to his new home, and unaware that Spanky's new family, the Milfords, have been involved in a protracted, murderous feud, the duo agrees. As soon as they arrive in Kentucky, Willie, Elmer and Spanky are confronted by their "enemies," the Wakefield family, which is headed by the crusty Colonel Wakefield. Determined to end the feud, Elmer and Willie, who is interested in the colonel's daughter Gloria, invite the Wakefields and the Milfords to a party at Spanky's mansion. There, the rival families put aside their hostilities until Spanky pops a champagne cork that the guests mistake for a gun shot. After the ensuing shootout, the colonel, who has loved Spanky's aunt Hannah for years, swears revenge on the Milfords and prepares to confront them with his sons. When the colonel catches Elmer in Gloria's bedroom, however, he insists that she marry him and sends for a minister. Willie then enters disguised as a minister, but is caught in the act and, with Elmer, must make a hasty escape. The next morning, Gloria informs Willie and Elmer that her family is planning a raid on Spanky's house, but before the duo flees with Spanky, Spanky sneaks out of the buggy. After a prolonged gun battle between the Wakefield clan and Spanky, Willie and Elmer, the Milfords finally arrive to defend their honor. Before any shots are exchanged, however, the Wakefields discover that Spanky has tied together their rifles. Elmer then shows the colonel a telegram that states that Spanky is not the true Milford heir, and satisfied that Willie is not a Milford, the colonel blesses his union with Gloria.
