HER HUSBAND'S AFFAIRS:Unable to keep her nose out of his affairs, Margaret Weldon is always trying to help her ad-man husband, Bill. Inspired by previous success, the meddling Margaret dives in to help when an eccentric crackpot inventor seeks Bill's help in promoting a miracle embalming fluid. But when the invention actually turns out to be a hair remover, the ensuing chaos leaves Margaret and Bill scrambling.

MISS GRANT TAKES RICHMOND:Dick Richmond is a sharp bookmaker whose unproductive real estate office is a cover for his gambling operation. Unaware of his real line of work, eager but incompetent Ellen Grant signs on as Dick's secretary and presses him into a building project to ease the post-war housing shortage. Dick siphons the cash from unsuspecting homebuyers to pay his debts to a big-time syndicate, leaving his ditzy secretary charged with embezzlement. Now, Dick must choose between the easy, grifting lifestyle or saving his secretary's hide!

THE FULLER BRUSH GIRL:Faced with the reality that their dream home is just out of reach, young lovers Humphrey and Sally Elliot decide that her opportunity lies in door-to-door cosmetics sales. But when the bumbling Sally stumbles upon a murder in progress, she becomes the number one suspect. In fleeing the police, Sally and Humphrey attempt to track down the real killers and find themselves in one comic mix-up after another.

THE MAGIC CARPET:In the post-war years, Arabian fantasies were incredibly popular: Here, cast as a villainess, Lucille Ball is Narah, the daughter of Ali, pretender to the throne and royal assassin. The true heir, played by John Agar, smuggled away on a magic carpet when just a baby, grows up under an assumed name until he is old enough to claim his place alongside his beautiful love, Lida.
