Synopsis
When Eva Lindström, an employee in a fashion store, discovers cruise tickets in the name of Bo Stensjö in the back of a taxi. She whimsically boards the ship pretending to be his wife, and manages to pull off the deception with the help of her friend Ebba who works onboard. When the real Bo Stensjö comes aboard at Naples he plays along with this, and quickly falls in love with her. However, she is now wanted in Sweden as she went missing wearing expensive clothes and jewels that belonged to the store.
