When Mrs. Covenden dies after undergoing a minor operation, she shocks her family by leaving the bulk of her estate to her chauffeur, young Tom Prince. The news is especially shocking to her nephew, Eddie Sturgess, who had been borrowing money in the hopes of inheriting a small fortune. Now that Tom is £30,000 richer, Louisa, Major Smith-Barton and Eddie decide to make a gentleman out of him. He passes his test - lunch with a Duchess and her daughter - with flying colors but in the end, wonders if he's really the right kind of person to have such a large sum of money.
