However, Philippe plans to send a friend, Stephane Michonnet, in his place, but the plan is foiled when Michonnet reveals his true identity. Meanwhile, Charles' spoiled son, Gérard, is tasked with chaperoning Shirley, the daughter of his English counterpart, but things take a turn when Shirley becomes the object of desire for the French boys. Charles, determined to avoid a scandal, disguises himself and chases after the kids' yacht, only to be joined by his colleague.
