On doctor's orders Bertie retires to sample the bucolic delights of Maiden Eggesford. Unfortunately, his idyll is rudely shattered by Aunt Dahlia who wants him to nobble a racehorse. Similar blots come in the form of Major Plank, the African explorer; Vanessa Cook, proud beauty and 'moulder of men' and Orlo Porter who seems to have nothing else to do but think of sundering Bertie's head from his body. As Bertie says, courageous though the Woosters may be, there are things from which they shrink.
