There they meet the beautiful film actress Maud Stanton, her sister Florence, and their Aunt, Mrs. Montrose, as well as an enormously wealthy young man named A. Jones. Jones and the nieces plan to become business partners in a venture to produce motion pictures designed for children and to construct twenty theaters to screen the films.
