Synopsis

Elizabeth is the hard taxed center of an irritating household which is panting after a legacy that she has received.

Having reached the breaking point, Elizabeth contracts a nice case of amnesia.

Twenty years are blotted out and she is a girl again, able to indulge in caprices and tell the members of the family what she thinks of them.
