The play opens with a scene in which a young woman named Miss Green, who is the wife of a famous director, is shocked to find that her husband's script has been changed to include a kiss between the two of them. Miss Green is furious that the director has changed her script without her knowledge, and she demands to know who changed the script. She learns that it was the director who invited her to his set to give him advice, and that he had not told her why he had changed it. She tells the director that she wants to see how she looks when her husband flirts with other women, and asks the director to inform the crew, suspend the announcement, and revise her script. In addition, the director must find a new set for the play, since Miss Green's studio will not be able to accommodate a new director in the future
