description: Jerry has been summoned to sit on the jury where he meets the delightful Jane, with whom he falls instantly in love. He is deliriously happy until he remembers he is already engaged to Vera Upshaw-who has been hounding Jerry to claim his inheritance, currently kept in trust by Uncles Crispin and Willoughby. Meanwhile, Willoughby is thrilled at being the proud owner of Gainsborough's small painting, The Girl in Blue, but when she goes missing and is believed to be stolen, Jerry is called upon to track her down, wherever she may be.
