Dancing with Jou Jou

Animals are running wild on the grounds of a country estate. So is Mason Figg a sweet-talking con artist with a reputation among the neighborhood ladies for being a spectacular dancer. It is this very talent alone that charms his trusting girlfriend Valentina who comes to believe that she’s as graceful as a swan. Nothing could be further from the truth. Mason lies as naturally as he breathes. While Valentina slowly figures that out she narrates a tale about becoming roped into swindling a pair of lottery winners out of a fortune. After a large quacking duck spooks her during an attempted diamond heist one calamity befalls another. Finally Valentina wises up—and flees. She’s certain that Mason will return to his senses and follow her back home to the city where the two of them can finally lead a normal happy and crime-free life. It’s a pity that Mason has a few plans of his own. Swept into the madness is Jafford Ames a famous tennis celebrity known for his quick wit and fine southern manners. Determined to figure out if Valentina is truly a thief he offers her a lift driving an old beat up Volkswagen Beetle as camouflage. The paparazzi spot them. Pictures land in the media causing speculation about the tennis star’s latest fling. Rumors are flying. A media circus sets up. Mason is fuming. So are the lottery winners whose animals have been curiously let loose. Television cameras broadcast a stampede while reporters interview the neighborhood ladies all of whom are wearing knock-offs of the elusive diamonds and confessing to being in love with the same man—the one who taught them how to uh dance.
