As described in a film magazine review,[2] Lois Whittall's father Leigh is interested in a young blonde charmer. Lois and her college friends are out for a good time and en route pick up Mabel Vandegrift, a young country woman who was very strictly reared by her parents. Their gay roadside party is wound up by a moonlight bathing frolic. The young people are then scattered by outraged villagers and they are in an automobile accident. Lois and Mabel then become mixed up in a murder mystery. In the end, it all comes out alright and the two young women find happiness with their respective lovers.
Daughters of Today was originally developed by Irving Thalberg as a flapper film, but was assigned to be directed by Sturgeon when Thalberg left for MGM.[3][4]
