Charley and his friend Jack fall in love with the beautiful Spittigue girls, Kitty and Annie, who are jealously guarded by their father. What's more, the young men are not interested in money, so they have no chance of winning the goodwill of their grim father. But a visit from Charley's aunt, a wealthy millionaire, gives the youngsters hope. They hatch a brilliant plan, but it seems to be ruined when Donna Lucia, the aunt, fails to arrive. The young men soon get over this little problem and persuade their friend to play the part of the aunt. All goes well until the real Donna Lucia arrives.
