Краткое содержание
Эксцентричное семейство Буллок каждый год устраивает соревнование, одной из целей которого является найти какое-нибудь животное. Поиски приводят сестёр Айрин и Корделию на мусорную свалку, где они встречают загадочного человека по имени Годфри (чья фамилия тоже Годфри), который выглядит, как бродяга, но обладает изысканными манерами. Айрин приглашает незнакомца в свой дом и выигрывает с его помощью соревнование. Затем она предлагает Годфри занять должность их дворецкого. Годфри с лёгкостью принимает причудливые порядки, царящие в доме, и безупречно справляется со своими обязанностями, продолжая уходить от вопросов о своем прошлом. Между тем ему есть, что скрывать.
