With mountainous debts piling up, Sir John Falstaff resolves to relieve himself of financial embarrassment by seducing two wealthy wives of Windsor. But these powerful women are wise to the ways of men and so, after plots and counterplots, disguises, deception and confusion—not to mention a dunking in the Thames—Falstaff gets his comeuppance.
