Francine Stone presents a fine cameo as the chambermaid, as does Raye Bush as the wife of the hotel keeper. Miss Stone's encounter with the Spaniard's wife (Amanda Vaill) is one of the most skillfully done of the numerous incidents connecting life in the insurance broker's apartment and the people at the Pretty Pussy.
