Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Miss Pinkerton is a 1932 comedy/mystery film directed by Lloyd Bacon.Joan Blondell is a nurse named Adams (we never do learn her first name). At the home of a wealthy family named Mitchell, one Herbert Wynn is shot and killed. His aunt, family matriarch Juliet Mitchell (Elizabeth Patterson), faints dead away and is committed to bed. Nurse Adams is detached from the hospital and assigned to take care of the now-bedridden Juliet.Meanwhile, Police Inspector Patten (George Brent) is investigating the mysterious death of Herbert Wynn. Patten can't quite decide if Wynn killed himself, if he was killed accidentally while cleaning his gun, or if he was murdered. It matters, because aside from the obvious criminal justice perspective, Herbert Wynn had a large insurance policy that won't be paid in the event of suicide. Patten essentially deputizes Adams, asking her to be his eyes and ears in the Mitchell house and help him with the investigation. Meanwhile, naturally, they fall in love.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Lingerie Scene: It's The Pre-Code Era, which is why Adams peels out of her nurse's uniform after a shift and gets down to nothing but a slip, while talking with her friends in the nurse's dorm. | |

Eek, a Mouse!! | |
| Miss Pinkerton / int_a293102a | comment |
Eek, a Mouse!!: Adams has a habit of letting out an ear-piercing scream when she's being attacked or strangled by bad guys. At the end there's another ear-piercing scream, and Patten dashes over to check—and it's Mary the maid, pointing at a mouse. | |
