Foreign Affaires

Captain Archibald Gore is an ageing aristocrat with several weaknesses including wine, women and horses. Such habits have proved expensive and he decides to visit one of his rich relatives to obtain financial assistance. He is turned away empty-handed and decides on an alternative plan - to arrive unannounced so that his relative will pay him to go away. This succeeds, and here he meets another man who is also penniless and looking for a way to secure finances as soon as possible. Together they hatch a plan, but will it succeed?
