The only daughter of an old landowner has died in Italy after leaving her family 15 years ago. Her son now returns home to Denmark. He threatens the landowner's nephew for his inheritance, prompting the nephew to devise several plans to discredit the boy in the eyes of his grandfather. The plans almost succeed, but thanks to help from the priest, among others, the story ends with a reconciliation between the grandson and his grandfather.
