A charming Englishman (Roger Moore) changes the lives of three generations of women who run a near-bankrupt bed and breakfast. The three women find him out cold on a beach and offer him free board in return for fixing the place up and being the handy man. Claire (Talia Shire), widow of Senator Blake Wellesly, is initially unwilling to let him in the house, partly due to the mystery around him caused by amnesia.

Gowan is something of a leech, cadging expensive dinners from well-off patrons (usually stealing the tips afterward) while seducing their bored wives and affecting a superior attitude toward the smug bourgeois types he exploits.
