Summary
A dissolute young aristocrat, fervently resisting the matrimonial shackles imposed by his scheming uncle to secure a substantial inheritance, concocts a preposterous scheme. He procures a life-like, exquisitely crafted automaton bride from a renowned toymaker, intending to stage a farcical ceremony. This uncanny simulacrum, designed with unnerving verisimilitude, becomes the unwitting centerpiece of a charade meant to appease familial pressure. Yet, the meticulously planned deception spirals into delightful absurdity as the 'doll's' intricate mechanism falters, human error intervenes, and the impassive artificiality of the bride collides with the burgeoning, inconvenient emotions of the young man tasked with escorting her, blurring the lines between artifice and authenticity in a whirlwind of mechanical mishaps and unexpected romantic stirrings.
