Plot

Movie star Laurel Stevens has made a new film called The Kidnapped Bride. This gives a brainstorm to a couple of small-time crooks, Mike and Dandy, to kidnap Laurel by pretending to chauffer the studio limousine to take her to that night’s movie premiere. At first Laurel believes it’s a bad publicity stunt planned by the studio. She scolds them for a stale idea that can backfire as blatant audience manipulation, causing the picture to flop and damaging her career. Laurel does not take them seriously until she tries to get out of the car and Mike slaps her to drive home the point.
