But things are about to change when young and beautiful Geraldine Barclay enters Prentice’s office and applies for the once more open job of personal secretary. Little does Prentice know, however, that his attempt to seduce the naïve girl will be interrupted not only by an untimely visit of his wife but also by that of Dr Rance, a government inspector with rather questionable views on sanity.
