Jimmy Parker & Mary Mulvaney
Created by William A. Pierce and Raymond L. Schrock

Tall, dark and handsome (with "smiling Irish eyes" yet!), actor James Dunn stars as JIMMY PARKER, the top op for Skip Tracers Ltd., a process-serving firm, discovers a load of hot jewels tucked away in a radio he repos, in the 1940 film Hold That Woman. Jimmy soon finds himself a very wanted man, not just by the police, who want him for theft, but gangsters, who want the jewels back. Parker spends most of the movie trying to recover both the jewels and the radio in order to clear his name. About the only one who believes him is his sweetie, and fellow op, Mary Mulvaney (played by Frances Gifford, Dunn's real-life wife). Hilarity allegedly ensues.
