Synopsis

Years previously, Helen Lestrade, a bitter, disappointed-in-love but rich woman, founded a sorority offering scholarships to coeds who forego all contact with men during their college years.

So what happens when Tony Cartwright, the handsomest man on campus, falls in love with one of the girls?

She resists, but in vain.

In a series of wild and frantic scenes, he manages to enter the house, disguised as a plumber, an exchange student from the Middle East, and finally, as the founder of the sorority, Helen Lestrade - this last just as the real Helen Lestrade appears!

But Tony's Uncle Jonathan puts in a lucky surprise appearance, and, fortunately, he's none other than Helen's old flame!

Old love rescues young love, and ZZP will never by the same again!
