In Hollythorn, Miss Eva Stanley, the village teacher boarding with Mrs. Carpenter, is mistaken for a guest by her brothers Sam George and John. They prank the house by staging a midnight intrusion and accidentally alarm Eva, leading to awkward apologies, a rescue, and a resolved reconciliation as Sam mediates and Eva recovers.
