description: Ruth and Alice eagerly begin their stay at Oak Farm as the film company films a series of plays at the farm. Country life is a welcome change from the bustle of the city; however, more than one mystery lurks at the farm. Sandy Apgar and his parents risk losing the farm because they cannot afford to pay the mortgage. Sandy's uncle had borrowed an inheritance from Sandy's parents but never paid them back. Sandy believes that Uncle Isaac intended to return the money but lost his mind and died before he was able to do so. The Apgars have searched repeatedly for the money with no luck. A tramp is discovered loitering on the farm and runs each time he is spotted. While the tramp appears to be doing nothing wrong, Sandy is deeply concerned about the tramp's motive. Meanwhile, the actors and actresses fall victim to several mishaps that occur during the filming of the plays.
