Working on a thesis, college student Bob Hilton does research while predicting that calypso music will be the next craze, replacing rock and roll in American musical tastes. When he and Professor Winthrop visit a nightclub where Jo Thomas, Victor McDonald and Abigail James are the featured singers, Bob's theory is mocked by Jo and Abigail until he takes her to another club and piques her interest.
Bob's interest in music and Jo, Victor and Abigail are frustrating to Marion Hendricks, his impatient fiancée. Jo, Victor and Abigail adds a calypso number to her repertoire, causing friction between the club's owner and meddlesome Bob that results in a fight. But the audience's reaction to the song leads to the place being renamed Club Trinidad with an all-new musical theme. Marion breaks up with Bob, but attracts the romantic interest of the professor.
