A building is in flames, but Cary Grant didn’t do it! Here, he is Leopold Dilg (what a last name), and he’s hiding in the room owned by Nora that Lightcap is renting. The tenant thinks the woman running around in his pajamas may be unhinged, but that’s only because she’s hiding a suspected arsonist in the attic. As the trio sorts out the meaning of justice and all of their big feelings, Leopold struggles to stay out of the glances of any passing cops and Nora struggles to keep the details of her love life out of the spotlight.
