Kingsfield presents a case in class, "Keystone County Hospital versus Little" and asks the students how much Mr. Little received as a result of his winning a counter suit against the hospital. The various students that he calls on cite the amount of $110,000, which Kingsfield says is incorrect. Each student is certain of the amount because they studied what was in their casebook which gave that as the amount of the award.

James Hart, a student who idolizes Kingsfield, is determined to find the error or to prove Kingsfield wrong and have his study group be the first to ever have an individual meeting with Kingsfield.

One of Hart's oldest and dearest friends from home, Jenny Todd, shows up on the doorstep of his dorm room. She has left her husband, also one of Hart's very good friends, and has come looking for a place to sort out her life. Willis Bell, a member of Hart's study group walks in and is instantly smitten by Jenny.

Hart is so wrapped up with trying to find the answer to the Keystone case that he has little time to spend with Jenny. Bell is called on to help her out which he is more than willing to do. As a favor to Hart she moves in to a cot in Bell's room. Bell spends more and more time with her, skipping s, and taking her on trips around town, falling more and more in love with her.

Everything Hart's study group comes up points to the fact that Little was awarded $110,000 and they are more and more convinced that Kingsfield must be wrong.

In the meantime, Jenny's husband, Roger Todd, shows up and wants to talk to Jenny, but she has made Hart promise not to let her husband know her whereabouts. Hart arranges with Roger to meet at Ernie's Tavern at noon and he will try and get Jenny to come. Hart goes to set it up with Jenny but Bell tells him that Jenny is asleep and he will tell her about Roger. Instead of telling her, Bell asks her what she would do if Roger shows up. She says that she would not see him. He does not tell her about Roger, and instead goes to see Elizabeth Logan, another member of their study group, and asks her if a person can make another person fall in love with them. She says "of course not" and then Bell gets distracted by a house he sees that is for rent.

The study group is convinced that they have exhausted all the sources of information about the Keystone case, so they will each write a detailed summary of what they have researched, call Kingsfield's secretary Nottingham, and set up a meeting to present their finding to Kingsfield.

Bell shows up at Ernie's to tell Roger that Jenny doesn't want to see him. Roger is not happy and demands to see her. Hart interjects that he will make sure that Jenny comes to see him at his hotel. Roger leaves and Hart is upset with Bell and asks what he thinks he's doing; Jenny is a married woman and Bell shouldn't put himself in the middle of it.

Bell takes Jenny to the rental house that he found to find out if she likes it. It comes out that Roger is in town looking for her and Jenny is upset with Bell for not telling her.

Bell is heartbroken and Jenny goes back to her husband. He eventually wants to get back into the study group which is going to make it's presentation to Kingsfield, but they say he has not done anything to help. Bell counters that he wouldn't do what they did. He says he wouldn't use the research they did, Kingsfield doesn't want to see them so that they can prove him wrong. Bell would go straight to the source and call Dr. Little, who would know if he got the $110,000 or not.

When they meet with Kingsfield he is ready to receive their presentation. They tell him that they aren't going to make a presentation. Bell tells Kingsfield that the casebook was correct, Little was awarded $110,000, but Kingsfield's question in was, what did Little receive. Bell called Dr. Little who told him that, in return for a retraction and his job back, he would turn down the cash award, so, he received nothing.

Kingsfield congratulated them on their ingenuity and then startled them by telling them that Dr. Little was dead. Who was it that Bell had talked to, Dr. Little, Jr. or perhaps his son?
