Jeeves and Wooster: The Once and Future Ex
Overview
Bertie spends much time putting the old Wooster brain to use in devising schemes to arrange the meeting of two tycoons. However, a more immediate concern is Stilton Cheesewright and Lady Florence Craye, both of whom hold vastly differing yet equally unpleasant opinions of Bertie - the former takes offence at his drinking and time spent with the later, while Florence thinks that he has possibilities.

Previous / Next
Episode 1: Return to New York
Back in New York, Bertie commissions the artist with whom he's fallen in love to paint a portrait of Aunt Agatha, and Tuppy's there trying to sell his recipe for Cock-A-Leekie soup to Slingsby of Slingsby's Soups. When there's a car accident involving the nasty Lucious Pim, and Claude and Eustace show up, things become of the sort in which one finds Jeeves' intervention invaluable.
Episode 3: Bridegroom Wanted
Bingo's in love with another waitress, and the old Rosie M. Banks gag comes up again, this time with an unfortunate twist. Unfortunately New York does not seem to be the haven it once was, and the Glossops are in town looking to marry off Honoria. Luckily, Blaire Egleston is in love with her and Bertie has just the plan to push him to propose. But he may have pushed too hard.
