Summary Betty has become engaged, for her father’s sake, with a hard working and kind young man, Kostas, who works at a store selling electrical appliances that belongs to Betty’s father, Mr. Periklis. The latter values Kostas and truly wants to make him his son-in-law. Kostas saves the life of a sensitive girl, Mary, who tries to commit suicide because her English lover deserted her. Later on, he is persuaded to impersonate a rich Englishman in order to help Mary deal with her father, Mr. Kyriakos, who is trying to force her to marry someone against her will. Betty, on the other hand, is in love with the lazy show-off Dionysis, and tries in any way she can, to turn Kostas away. Kyriakos becomes the reason for Kostas’ deception to be revealed and, of course, Periklis fires him. Mary, however, who has realized that Kostas really loves her, persuades Kyriakos to convince Periklis to rehire Kostas. A double wedding ensues: Betty/Dionysis and Mary/Kostas
