Tout cependant n'est pas aussi rose qu'il y paraît. Adrienne, la sœur de Jean, déteste Jacqueline et il semblerait que Fernand, le filleul du banquier, qu'il a recueilli, élevé et choyé, soit devenu l'amant de sa chère Jacqueline. Déboussolé, Jean Vernet veut en avoir le cœur net : il décide de simuler la surdité pour savoir ce que pense vraiment son entourage...
