Based on the Terrence Rattigan play "The Sleeping Prince," Charles, Prince Regent of Carpathia (Olivier), is in London to attend the 1911 coronation of King George V. Ditzy American chorus girl Elsie Marina (Monroe) performs in a West End revue and catches Charles' eye. The Prince arranges for Elsie to attend an "intimate supper" at his hotel suite. Although Elsie successfully wards off Charles' advances, she drinks too much bubbly and ends up falling asleep. When morning comes, Charles is anxious to show Elsie the door. She, however, has fallen for the Prince.
