Liza is a poor girl who sells combs in the streets of Monastiraki, arrested after she spends the night sleeping in a furniture store. At her trial, her fast mouth charms a lawyer who takes her in as housekeeper to him and his friends. Across town, Mitzi is a spoiled rich girl who resembles her (both played by Aliki Vougiouklaki) and is angry at her father for not approving her choice of husband. Mitzi disappears and pretends to be kidnapped, but is surprised when she looks in the newspaper and notices that she has been restored to her family since her father found Liza and, despite knowing her to not be his child, is using her as bait to lure his real kid back home. Liza uses her time in her new home wisely, turning things upside down and showing kindness to the servants and involving her pretend father in more philanthropy than he is prepared for.
