Artist Felix Young and his sister The Baroness Munster journey from Europe to America. They track down their relatives, and Felix becomes smitten with cousin Gertrude. However, Felix must compete with a young local man for Gertrude's hand. (Apparently the fact that they are not related does not give the other man an advantage.) All ends happily, with kissing cousins.
