Ko mu čudaška, vendar prijetna starka Tokue ponudi pomoč v kuhinji, Sentaro najprej okleva, a jo nazadnje nejevoljno sprejme v službo. Vendar se Tokue izkaže za pravo mojstrico pri pripravi sladkega nadeva "an", za katerega ima lasten skrivni recept.

Originalni opis filma:

In 1912 pompous industrialist Arthur Birling, who has hopes of a knighthood, his superior wife Sybil and young son Eric are celebrating the engagement of daughter Sheila to eligible Gerald Croft when they are visited by blunt Inspector Goole. He tells them of the suicide of a young woman named Eva Smith and though they all claim not to have known her the inspector demonstrates that each in their own way contributed to her downfall, by having her dismissed from work or, in the young men's cases, having sexual relationships and then abandoning her. After Goole has left the youngsters feel ashamed and the engagement is halted but Arthur Birling, doubting the inspector's authority, rings the local police station. This is the prelude to a double shock which will lead to the family's humiliation and ruin.
