In a satirical exploration of societal norms and media sensationalism, the story unfolds against the backdrop of a tumultuous season of strikes in London, culminating in an unusual protest by the Duke and Duchess of Falvertoon. Following a series of labor disputes, including a comical strike by zoo attendants threatening to unleash wild animals on the city, public attention shifts to the impending divorce proceedings of the Duke, which promise scandal and intrigue.
