David Huxley is waiting to get a bone he needs for his museum collection. Through a series of strange circumstances, he meets Susan Vance, and the duo have a series of misadventures which include a leopard called Baby.
Can a buttoned-up paleontologist maintain his sanity when a whirlwind socialite and a pet leopard derail his entire life? This screwball comedy relies on lightning-fast dialogue and pure, unadulterated chaos to keep you breathless.
