Synopsis

In London, Jennifer Lawrence wishes to marry Sir John Corbett and first discusses it with her daughters Baba and Irene. Irene, who idealized her own father, is greatly opposed, but her mother decides to marry anyway. Irene runs away and tries to drown herself, but is saved by Philip and Baba, who, sobbing in tears hugging Irene laying in the boat, repeats, in her way and attitude to express love and affection, she to be "…anyway a stupid goat!" who would be death if they didn't find her in time. Irene, in her arms, whispers cheek to cheek that mom should never know what she was going to do. Baba promises it and turns her head, still sobbing but not losing her humour, to tell Philip he has to give up his medal of valor for saving a life, which Philip, in love with Irene, agrees while drying his drenched trousers and, cool, replies: "Obviously: I mine, you your one!". "Are you happy to not be died?" Asks Baba to Irene, who replies: "I'm ashamed!". Baba, back: "You have not to do it at all, not so, Philip? She has not to do it!". "I had to be sick" says Irene, "Nonsense: you were jealous!" replies Baba, "He's such a proper person; think about what he's taking: me so naughty, you so hysterical! And even if she marries him, she stays anyway OUR MOMMY!" (kiss on mouth and:) "You're right, Baba… I'm truly a goat!" "You're right… but a SWEET goat!" and, cheek to cheek, movie ends.
