Following Bulletin Pathé: Gribouillette, the daughter of a fat Normandy land agent, has four suitors: a fireman, a land agent, the clerk of a notary office, and Boireau the stable boy, the only one who has managed to win her heart. The father dreams of a good match for his daughter: the three other suitors have his support. Boireau dresses up as Gribouillette and receives, in his way, her suitors. – Both André Deed and his real-life wife Valentina Frascaroli are seen in drag as they change parts. AD is quite funny as the feisty "country girl".
