Anne and Bob, an American couple living in Paris, organize a dinner party and invite twelve friends. Bob's son arrives by surprise and the total number of guests is now 13. The superstitious Anne asks her maid, Maria, to pretend to be a rich Spanish friend and join the table. Maria meets David, a British aristocrat. Bob’s son, who is not a fan of his stepmother Anne, tells David that Maria is actually royalty but will not admit it. They both like each other and start a relationship. When David tells Maria he knows who she really is, she believes he knows she is a maid. Anne is furious when she learns her maid has entered a relationship with David. Anne, who is not ashamed of her own classism, is herself worried that she has outgrown her role as a younger wife and takes the blooming relationship with her friend and maid personally.
