Over the course of three generations, the Dark and Penhallow families married each other, which did not, however, reduce their disagreements and disagreements. Now the elderly eccentric head of the clan, Aunt Becky, announced her will regarding the property, an important part of which was the family heirloom - the legendary Dark jug. She came up with several conditions for its future owner, but never said who would qualify for them, to whom exactly she would bequeath the jug. In the next twelve months, the clan experienced great family changes: someone broke off the engagement, someone made peace, someone... sometimes they quarreled, someone returned to their old connections - and all this was somehow connected with Aunt Becky’s legacy. And then came the evening when Aunt Becky's will was revealed... and the biggest surprise awaited the family.
