Problems with Drink

Plot:

Glamorous Monica Simmons arrives at Blandings as the new 'pig man' and Freddie, despite a vow to forswear women for drink, is smitten. Connie has also invited Lady Daphne Littlewood, whom she believes is a rich widow, hoping she will be a suitable match for Clarence. Lady Daphne and her obnoxious son Huxley show an unusual interest in the Empress, which endears her to Clarence. But Monica discovers she is a penniless fortune hunter out to marry Clarence for his money and that, after the wedding, Beach, Connie, Freddie, and the Empress will all be thrown out. Drastic action is required.
