Plot:

Josef is the valet for Count von Rommer and well-trained in his master's philandering ways. Mistaken for the Count by Marie, a maid whom he thinks is an aristocrat, Josef shows her a merry time at the Count's Monte Carlo villa. Meanwhile, the Count escapes a situation with Countess von Rischenheim when her husband Count von Rischenheim makes an unscheduled appearance, by posing as the butler.
