Ship.Ahoy.1942.HDTV.x264-REGRET

Writer Merton K. Kibble (Red Skelton), on the verge of a nervous breakdown, decides to take a cruise. His Man Friday, Skip (Bert Lahr), gets the tickets, picking Puerto Rico because that's the destination of a troupe of pretty girls. Hypochondriac Merton is shaken out of his doldrums when he meets Tallulah Winters (Eleanor Powell), star of the dance troupe. She has little time for Merton, as she is carrying a government secret. Or at least she thinks she is. Actually, she is the dupe of spies and is delivering a magnetic mine to enemy agents. She slips it into Merton's suitcase and recovers it ashore. At a show on the ship, Tallulah realizes she has been duped. While trying to reach U.S. agents, the spies have her cornered.
