Bill Davis, owner of a successful construction company, is entertaining a date at his New York apartment. Then, Buffy, his niece and daughter of his dead brother, is brought to him. Bill is ambivalent about taking on this responsibility. He suggests sending Buffy to school in Switzerland. This prompts Buffy to run away, but she only makes it as far as the basement of his apartment building. Giles French, the Davis butler, finds her there and brings her back. Bill and Buffy have a talk, where Bill assures her she can stay if she wants. Until now, she has only called him "sir" but now calls him Uncle Bill. The businessman is about to go to Peru when Buffy's twin brother, Jody, is brought to the apartment. Bill decides he'll take in Jody, as well, much to French's discomfort. ("Mr. Davis -- there are two of them!") Bill is off to Peru. Then, his other nice, 15-year-old Cissy, is brought to the apartment and the three siblings enjoy a reunion. French is less enthused. "I am a nanny," he says.
