'Sugarpuss' O-Shea (the Mighty Barbara Stanwyck) needs to lay low from her mobster boyfriend (Slim Sid?) and is happy to use the pedantic Good Professor (Gary Cooper) for those ends...Yum-yum ensues.

Two Weeks to Remember: Betty does skis? I had to go with another Betty...near skis. Miss Grable is taken off to a snow bound cabin for a spot of don't-tell-the-wife and ends up snagging the forest ranger. Can't remember if she actually gets on skis but it is a weekend to remember.
How To Marry a Millionaire
