Bertie's insistence on playing the trombone drives Jeeves to give notice. Bertie hires a less satisfactory valet, Brinkley. Bertie's friend, Lord "Chuffy" Chuffnell, quickly snaps Jeeves up.

Bertie rents a country cottage from Chuffy in Chuffy's family-owned village of Chuffnell Regis in Devon, and practices his trombone. Chuffy is intent on selling Chuffnell Hall to J.

He discovers, to his concern, that Pauline was once engaged to Bertie—and that Washburn wants Bertie to stay away from his daughter.
