The Brewster sister, Abby and Martha, are two sweet, elderly, Victorian-era ladies who are famous for their charities and good deeds. They care for their nephew Teddy, who believes himself to be President Theordore Roosevelt. They also scheme to marry their other nephew, Mortimer, to their minister's lovely daughter, Elaine. However, when Mortimer discovers the nature of one of their charities, coupled with the untimely arrival of their third nephew, Jonathan, the stage is set for a darkly hilarious confrontation as the nephews contend over the fate of their aunts and the engagement of Mortimer to Elaine.
