A milque-toast bank clerk finds himself stuck a speeding trailer towed by gangsters after a bank robbery goes awry. Unfortunately for him, the police and even his own domineering wife, believe that he is the robber and so head off in hot pursuit precipitated a fast-paced merry chase.

Special Notes: Joe Penner received star billing for the first time in Go Chase Yourself, and Lucille Ball enjoyed her first leading role in the film. According to modern sources, Penner pushed RKO to cast Lucille Ball after he heard her on The Phil Baker Show, a popular radio program on which she had just become a regular featured performer.
