Curmudgeonly Tom Cartwright is unrepentant about the fact that he married his wife Clara for her money, and he barely tolerates her grown children. But when her younger daughter Barbara flouts convention and strikes out on her own, Cartwright's comfortable existence is threatened, and he's determined to set things right at any cost.
