Plot


As described in a film magazine reviews,[3] Jim Wilson’s guests arrive to celebrate with him his first anniversary of his divorce. Bella Wilson, his former wife, is present. Jim is infatuated with Kit Eclair. The butler is stricken with a malady. Fearing its contagion, the servants flee. Aunt Selina, Jim’s moneyed relative, arrives. Jim persuades Kit to pose as his wife because he does not wish Aunt Selina to know that he is divorced. Police announce that the house is quarantined. At bedtime, Aunt Selina supervises sleeping arrangements, putting everybody in the wrong rooms. Jim carries on a flirtation with Bella. Kit is wooed by Tom Harbison, her former lover. Jim re-wins his former wife and explains the humorous situation to Aunt Selina.
