SYNOPSIS:
In this comedy written by Jack Weinstock and Willie Gilbert, Daniel Corban is on his honeymoon in the Catskill Mountains of New York when his wife suddenly disappears. Frantic to locate her, he contacts Inspector Levine. While the two are discussing Elizabeth Corbin’s disappearance, in comes Father Kelleher who magically produces Elizabeth. Daniel denies that this woman is his wife, even though she can answer the Inspector’s questions about her husband down to the last detail. Is she his wife? Has Daniel gone mad? Is the Priest involved in a scheme with Elizabeth to get life insurance? What does the deli man, Sidney have to do with it? Is Daniel’s boss, Everett Parker, and his wife part of it as well? We find out with a surprise twist ending.
