Rather than putting her lifestyle at risk, Natalie overlooks her rich husband's proclivities with the female house staff, but when his attention turns to Susan, her daughter and his stepdaughter, she feels the need to take action. The confrontation, however, unexpectedly results in her husband enjoying both Natalie and Susan together, while also revealing Susan's erotomania. Susan, having been introduced to sexual games by her stepfather, enjoys playing the role of naughty innocent with an older man. Destitute after becoming widowed, Natalie seeks to re-establish her wealth but failing to find a suitable new husband she turns to her friend, Anna Quinlan, for advice. Since Anna is also Madame Q, she suggests that Natalie and Susan could achieve the wealth and lifestyle that they desire by becoming ladies of pleasure at The Nunnery.
