They meet Ilona Boris (Gladys Swarthout) and Kovach awards her a medal and politely asks her if she is ever in Budapest to look him up. She quickly arrives in Budapest, but her attempts to meet Kovach are futile. Kovach and Jason are feuding over the affection of Countess Monica Foldesay (Claire Dodd) and Kovach rents a summer home next to her estate. Ilona gets a job as Kovach's maid and as she is about to be sacked Kavach gets the idea that if he can pass her off on Jason and will have the summer free to woo Countess Monica. Complications arise.
