After being turned down for the nomination of chairman of the dining committee at The Drones, Bertie runs into Pauline Stoker, who is in London to buy her wedding dress and is being followed by a strange fellow with a ginger beard. She asks Bertie to be a bodyguard. Meanwhile, her father is unable to turn Chuffnell Hall into a hotel, so he looks into turning it into a sanitarium run by none other than Sir Roderick Glossop. This is all bad news for Bertie's image, and his only hope is... the boys from The Drones dressed up as Minstrels?
