The Garden of Eden Synopsis

Toni le Braun (Corinne Griffith) is a hopeful, talented opera singer who gets a letter from Budapest saying that she has acquired a singing job. Unfortunately, she soon learns that the local venue in which she is to sing is not an opera house but a cabaret. When she refuses the advances of one of the rich patrons of the cabaret and the wardrobe mistress (Louise Dresser) assists her in escaping his advances, they are both fired. What Toni does not know is that the wardrobe mistress is a Baroness, whose husband was killed in the great war. Rather than lose her old life, she works all year, and when she gets her husband's yearly check, she lives in Monte Carlo the way she did before the war, until her money runs out, and then she returns to Budapest. The Baroness introduces Toni as her daughter; she is henceforth the Baroness' ward. Two men fall in love with Toni, and she becomes engaged to one of them, a young man named Richard (Charles Ray). Everything is wonderful, but as the movie says, "in all the fairy tales where people live happily ever after, the men did not have relatives." At the wedding, Richard's uncle arrives, and he is the man who had previously tried to make advances toward Toni at the cabaret. She is ashamed, for now she knows everyone will know she is not really the Baroness' daughter. The other members of the wedding party try to pay her off, as others try to talk Richard into breaking his agreement, but Richard's uncle, the partially reformed lech, assures him that Toni is a wonderful girl and that he should not let the old humbug relatives use money as an excuse to not allow him to marry her. Richard declares that he wasn't going to allow them to do so anyway. After much madcap histrionics and shocking losses of clothing, the two are wed, and everyone lives happily ever after.
