The story
Count Bobby’s aunt, Countess Ratzeberg, is meant to chaperone Mary, the daughter of American millionaire Piper, on a trip across Europe in exchange for a large sum of money. When the elderly countess becomes seriously ill, Bobby and his family urgently need the payment. He therefore disguises himself as his aunt and takes her place on the journey. Bobby falls in love with Mary, while also pursuing her as a man. His best friend, Baron Mucki, is also in love with Mary and tries to obstruct Bobby, complicating the deception and the trip.
Full plot (contains spoilers)
Count Bobby’s aunt, Countess Ratzeberg, is supposed to accompany Mary, the daughter of American millionaire Piper, on a trip across Europe as her chaperone, in return for a large sum of money. Unfortunately, the elderly lady is seriously ill. Since they urgently need the money, her nephew Bobby disguises himself as Countess Ratzeberg and sets off on the trip. Count Bobby falls in love with Mary and also begins courting her as a man. To Bobby’s dismay, however, his best friend, Baron Mucki, is in love with Mary too—and does everything he can to put obstacles in Bobby’s way. Eventually, Count Bobby is hopelessly overwhelmed by constantly changing clothes, and Mary figures out the truth. Of course, she cannot stay angry with him for long, and the young couple’s happiness is complete.
