A TRIVIAL COMEDY FOR SERIOUS PEOPLE.
Being sensible can be excessively boring. At least Jack thinks so. While assuming the role of dutiful guardian in the country, he lets loose in town under a false identity.

Hoping to impress two eligible ladies, the gentlemen find themselves caught in a web of lies they must carefully navigate.
