This episode presents a comedy-drama about a married couple of limited means who suddenly strike it rich. Alice and Rex Adams find themselves rich when a small value of stock turns into a half million dollars. With the help of his lawyer and cousin, Calvin Coopersmith, Rex increases his fortune eight-fold. Rex indulges in extreme extravagance. Another woman appears, Maria Pringle, whose hobby is taking money from millionaires. Alice counters with her own huge expenditures, teaching Rex how corrupt he has become. Calvin amalgamates Rex's holdings into a foundation under his own control. Calvin counts the money aboard a yacht with his wife, the former Maria Pringle.
