Synopsis

[edit]

The Parisian businessman Dubélair employs the exuberant White Russian Vera as a maid who arrives with her boyfriend Boris in tow who she passes off as her brother. One day her impecunious Boss pays her with a lottery ticket but then steals it back when it proves to be the winning number. Ultimately all is resolved with Vera and Boris now employing their former masters as their servants.
