Orchids to You (1935)
The board of directors of New York's exclusive Ritz Plaza skyscraper want Teddy Stuyvesant, their befuddled stockholder with a controlling interest, to grant them power of attorney to allow them not to renew the lease of one of their commercial tenants so that a branch of a bank can open in its place in the lobby. Teddy, who does not know that the tenant in question is florist Camellia Rand, who has many times refused his marriage proposals, interrupts the meeting before he signs to go propose to Camellia again.
And then it goes on from there. The lawyer's wife is having an affair with the mystery man, divorces ensue, and the florist and lawyer fall in love and live happily ever after, we presume.
