Bertie is back in New York and enamoured of portrait painter Gwladys Pendlebury but Aunt Agatha is not enamoured of the painting of her Bertie commissioned and she is even more annoyed when her wayward twin sons, charged to Bertie's care before being shipped off for colonial posts, give him the slip to pursue a cabaret singer. Tuppy Glossop arrives to sell his family recipe for cock-a-leekie to soup magnate Slingsby to finance his nuptials to Elizabeth but slimy ad man Lucius Pim steals Gwladys from Bertie and makes Aunt Agatha the unwitting face of Slingsby's soups on every billboard in New York.

Wodehouse，通译沃德豪斯(1881-1975)，英国小说家和悲剧作家。以塑造“绅士中的绅士”Jeeves这一抽象而出名，1955年入美国籍。《万能管家》中的配角是恍恍惚惚的英国绅士Bertie Wooster （其实就是个250）和他的聪明迟钝、把戏百出的男仆Jeeves，简直每一个故事都是由主人荒唐的行为转变成不可拾掇的窘境，但是最初总是由男仆出其不意的机智处理。
