It is Old Mr. Grace's birthday, and the department wants to bring a musical tribute to the Grace family. Mr. Rumbold's brother Mycroft (played by Nicholas Smith) then sets out to trace the Grace family tree, which leads to Wales, Scotland, Somerset and (apparently) the American antebellum South.

Harold Bennett makes a final appearance as Young Mr. Grace; the episode aired three months after his death.
