Norman Lewison directs one of Hollywood's most famous screen teams, Doris Day and Rock Hudson, in this, their third and final film together.

Hudson is hilarious as an obsessed hypochondriac who mistakenly over hears his doctor discussing the impending death of a patient. Believing the poor victim is himself Hudson elicits the help of his friend and neighbour, Tony Randall, to find a new husband for his soon to be widowed wife.
Randall, unfortunately, isn't much help as he deals with his upcoming loss by swigging martinis. Alarmed by her husband's increasingly strange behaviour, Day becomes even more frustrated when an old paramour (Clint Walker) shows up at their country club and Hudson encourages his attentions towards her!
