Before 24 hours pass, Dash finds himself in the hospital unable to remember what happened. Annie, posing as his ex-wife, visits him only to discover his doctor, Mae Summers, is actually an ex-wife and none too pleased to meet the interloper. Since a body has turned up in his storage shed, Dash enlists the aid of Annie to set things straight. Double-time is necessary for the neighbors to solve the quandary. Along the way they discover more than friendship.
