Synopsis

Jack Tempest's rampant disregard for time distresses his fiancé Vivian and her father. After Vivian announces a declaration of indefinite separation, Jack receives an inheritance from a distant relative, though only under the odd condition that he wind a clock at ten each night and wake up by alarm at six each morning. This sets Jack on the path to punctuality, reuniting him with Vivian who is revealed to be the "distant relative" incognito.
