Synopsis

When Harry Douglas, the new American Ambassador to Great Britain, tells his family he is going to Scotland to play golf, his wife Lois and daughter Debbie announce weekend plans of their own. Their newly hired butler, Perkins, watches stoically as each leaves and secretly returns for a romantic rendezvous in the empty house. While Harry, a sexy neighbour, Debbie and her boyfriend strive to remain undiscovered, Harry's secretary and Captain South of Marine Corps Embassy Security arrive in the wake of a bomb threat. The embassy is sealed off with hilarious results. Even the imperturbable Perkins is drawn into sexual shenanigans when Lois returns for her own assignation.
