Once a prosperous family, they now find themselves broke. To maintain their façade and cling to their former lifestyle, they devise a clever scheme. They steal from their friends, pawn the stolen goods for cash, and invest the money in stocks carefully chosen by their astute housekeeper. After making some profits, they retrieve the items they had taken and return them to their rightful owners, all while keeping their charade intact.
