The Best of Broadway - Season 1 Episode 6 The Show-Off

Aubrey Piper, only a clerk, pretends to be a railroad executive. He comes into the life of the Fisher family when daughter Amy falls in love with him. The family sees through his stories and can't stand him and his blowhard manner, especially Mrs. Fisher. Aubrey ends up unemployed and walking the street wearing a sandwich sign-the only work he can find. Eventually his luck turns and he helps a friend sell a patent and a deal he worked out at the railroad comes through making him wealthy. He marries Amy and her family comes to accept him and his show-off ways.
