Synopsis

---

“What a pity it was that [it] should end on a false note, with Jeeves making his exit mooning over Clara Bow. This was quite out of character.”

Dahlia is already burdened with the company of her own son and another nephew, and the three boys end up competing against each other for a good conduct prize.
