Your Presence Requested: Eager to impress his uppercrust friends, Monsieur Choufleuri has invited half of Parise glitterati to his home tonight at 8:00 to hear three famous Italian opera singers in an exclusive musical soir'e. When the trio of traveling trillers suddenly cancels its appearance, our host is more distraught than a diva without an autograph hound. To the rescue comes his daughter, Ernestine, along with her boyfriend, Babylas, a poor, but talented, opera composer. Together, they concoct an ingenious scheme to save the evening. But not without an ulterior motive of their own!

Just wait till you see how convoluted leamour can get on the remote Island of Tulipatan, where nobody is who they appear to be. Oh, mon dieu!
