William Freshman is in love with Ann Casson. She's engaged to military officer Henry Wenman. To eliminate competition, Freshman "borrows" a baby and claims that it's Wenman's. Fire, flood, famine, plague-you'll see none of these in Bachelor's Baby, but the complications lean towards the comically apocalyptic all the same. The film was based on a novel by Rolph Bennett. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
