In prison, Everett finds salvation when his cellmate, a country singer named Hunk Houghton (Mickey Shaughnessy), hears him sing and pegs him as a future star.

VIVA LAS VEGAS: All musically gifted racing-driver Lucky Jackson (Elvis Presley) wants in Las Vegas, is to score enough money for a new car so he can win the Grand Prix. When he encounters sexy swimming instructor Rusty (Ann-Margret), he considers staying around longer. After Lucky loses his winnings in the hotel pool, he's forced to remain in Vegas long enough to win back his dough--but now he also wants to win the Rusty's heart. Unfortunately, so does his slick racing enemy, Elmo (Cesare Danova).

GIRL HAPPY: As his daughter, Valerie (Shelley Fabares), sets off on a spring-break trip to Florida, thuggish businessman Big Frank (Harold J. Stone) insists that singer Rusty Wells (Elvis Presley) shadow her. Valerie warms to Rusty, but when she realises that he's been paid to keep her out of trouble, she rebels, taking up with Italian womaniser Romano (Fabrizio Mioni). As her wild ways land her in jail, Rusty must deal with her father's wrath, Romano's threats and his own complex feelings for Valerie.

But at a tour stop in Santa Barbara, California, three women--auto heiress Cynthia Foxhugh (Shelley Fabares), writer Diana St Clair (Diane McBain) and Mike's drummer, Les (Deborah Walley)--vie with one other to win him for a husband. Mike, who doesn't wish to commit, must also prepare to drive his sports car in the Santa Fe Road Race.

ELVIS: THAT'S THE WAY IT IS: In this 2001 re-edited version of the 1970 concert documentary, Elvis Presley's first non-fiction film, Elvis returns from thirteen years of concentrating on movie roles to perform his "Summer Festival" run of shows in Las Vegas.
