Synopsis:
The Irish McFath is the foreign minster to an imaginary country. Includes an embassy party. They are all people really living in a bed sitter in London and they have this strange transfer and the daughter of the duke wants to go back to life, `I want to go back with Jimmy', and she is the same girl as the girl in the bed-sitter and he is the same boy'. Last line by duchess, `At last you've fallen in love and reality has crept in', and the whole scene disappears except for the two modern young people.
