When Sir John Falstaff seeks some amusement, he pens identical letters to two married women, Mistress Ford and Mistress Page. Upon discovering his scheme, the two women conspire to play a few tricks on the knight to give him a taste of his own medicine.

At the same time, the Pages’ daughter, Anne, finds herself surrounded by eager suitors.
