His wife is diverted from discovering the tart by one of her famous visitations from a popular saint.
The doctor's uncle returns after a long army tour in Africa and promptly mistakes the lady from Maxim's for his nephew's wife.
Uncle's immediate business is marrying off a niece to a young soldier who turns out to be the true lover of the lady from Maxim's.
Everybody is invited to the ceremony at the uncle's chateau where all courses collide.
