But Andre previously had a flirtation with Lucia de Morfontaine (Deshon), and when Jacqueline hears of this she makes Andre promise to never see Lucia again. When Lucia calls on Andre when Jacqueline is out, Jacqueline, angered, decides to pay him back and starts a flirtation with Ernest, which arouses the jealousy of his lady secretary.
