Plot [edit]
In 1940, while on a cruise, stodgy, overly frugal businessman Larry Wilson is hit on the caput with an oar while rescuing a drunk "Doctor" Ryan from the h2o. He wakes up and remembers that he is actually a suave conman named George Carey. George's last retention is of going to identify a large bet in 1931.
When the ship docks at New York, he is met by Kay, whom he discovers is his wife. She however is in the process of divorcing him to ally Herbert. They go home to the small town of Habersville, Pennsylvania. George talks Physician (who is also a con creative person) into masquerading as a physician treating him, partly out of curiosity, but mostly because of greed, after seeing the enormous balance in his checking account. That turns out to be a dead terminate (the money is only held in trust for the Community Chest), then he decides to swindle people using his alter ego's sterling reputation. He sends for his quondam crony Duke Sheldon, who plants oil on a lot George owns.
A complication arises when he falls in dearest with Kay a second time. She however wants aught farther to practice with her boring cheapskate of a husband. George attempts to win back Kay's affections, while also trying to sell his land to several greedy leading citizens of the town. George uses his other persona as a historic woodsman to have his troop of Junior Rangers (many of them the sons of local businessmen) stumble upon the oil. This gets back to their fathers, who rapidly offer to buy the land.
In the end, wanting to remain with Kay who now loves him as George, he decides to abort the swindle, but Duke will not allow him. They fight, and George is knocked out by a dial. When he comes to, he seems to be Larry once more. Duke leaves in disgust, just having hooked the biggest scammer of the citizens in a side deal. When Physician muses that one knock on the head reversed the upshot of another, Kay, who knows all and wants George back, picks up a vase. Earlier she can bring it down on his caput, "Larry" proves that he was only faking to go rid of Duke.

Reception [edit]
