Synopsis
Marseille businessman Victor Darnetal is delighted to be invited by his playwright nephew Georges to attend the premiere of his latest work in Paris. To his surprise he discovers that his nephew's girlfriend Lucie has had a child, and that Georges has been so obsessed with his show that she hasn't told him. Worse, Victor finds out that Georges is in a relationship with the leading lady of his show and plans to marry her. Outraged Victor offers to marry Lucie and adopt her son as his heir, which in turn angers Victor's own long-standing girlfriend Nathalie.
