Starring: Colleen Moore, Jack Mulhall
Directed by: Alfred Santell
Synopsis: Pink Watson (Colleen Moore) is a poor switchboard operator determined to make good who applies for a job at a swanky hotel and gets into comic misadventures.
Kitty Cameo: In an early scene, Pink is daydreaming about being rich. She has seen a woman in a car who is wearing orchids and fur. The woman has tossed part of her corsage out of the car and Pink swoops it up, even though it has been run over. Pink returns to her switchboard and then holds the orchid up to some white fur nearby.
Pink then picks up the fur, which turns out to be a large long-haired white cat, and places it around her neck, pretending to be rich.
Eventually the cat gets tired and jumps down from her neck, interrupting her reverie.
Final Mewsings: Cats are too often typecast as fur pieces in films.
