George Bevan, a successful American composer in London, hides a fleeing girl in his taxi and loses his heart. She is Lady Maud Marsh of Belpher Castle in Hampshire, locked up by her family to keep her from an unsuitable man. George takes a cottage by the castle and sets about winning her, opposed by her pompous brother Percy, her formidable aunt and a scheming page-boy.
