Daphne and Rex live lives of well-to-do elegance while Rex's brother Stanley has been condemned to scrimping for tobacco and Camp coffee. Daisy, Rex's daughter, has also become a victim: her cruel, combing husband Julian Has turned her into an eccentric skivvy. If life is a bowl of cherries, there are always those, it seems, who are left with the bruised remnants and those who snatch the ripest fruit of all.
