Synopsis
Waitress Hope Frenchman is adopted by the Alstyne sisters as part of a "Big Sister" program and taken to a summer resort. Wetherill, an inventor who has perfected a formula for a noiseless gunpowder, also has come to the resort with his daughter Irene. Irene's suitor, Van Alstyne, a writer, and the Alstyne sisters' nephew, meanwhile has accepted a job as a waiter at the hotel in the hopes of getting background information for a story. La Belle, a foreign spy, comes to the hotel to get information about the formula from Wetherill with the help of a bogus count, but Hope exposes the count as someone she knew at her restaurant job and foils the plot. Everything ends happily when the various couples involved reconcile their differences.
