"Romance on the High Seas"

Romance on the High SeasElvira Kent (Janis Paige) and her husband Michael (Don DeFore) suspect each other of cheating. For a wedding anniversary, Elvira books an ocean cruise to Rio de Janeiro. When her husband claims that unexpected business will prevent him from going, Elvira pretends to take the trip alone, sending in her place singer Georgia Garrett (Doris Day), a woman she had met at the travel agency. This will give her the opportunity to find out if Michael is indeed sneaking around behind her back. Meanwhile, Michael hires private detective Peter Virgil (Jack Carson) to check up on her.

As part of his job, Peter becomes acquainted with Georgia (believing her to be Elvira). They gradually fall in love, which makes reporting to Michael very uncomfortable for Peter. By chance, Georgia's boyfriend, Oscar Farrar (Oscar Levant), is also aboard. When Peter spots them together, he thinks he has discovered the identity of Elvira's lover.

"Top Hat"

Top HatFred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Lucille Ball

Jerry Travers (Fred Astaire) would love to be "Dancing Cheek to Cheek" with Dale Tremont (Ginger Rogers) from the moment he sets eyes on her. Even though Dale initially — and, of course, mistakenly — is under the impression that Jerry’s married, Jerry is eventually able to sing and dance his way into Dale’s heart. This classic musical features Irving Berlin’s romantic "Isn’t It a Lovely Day to Be Caught in the Rain" and "Top Hat, White Tie and Tails."
